If you assume homoscedasticity (equal SDs), your choices are: Compare a control mean with the other means

Games-Howell (recommended for large samples).If you do not assume homoscedasticity (equal SDs), your choices are: In some cases, the chance of a Type I error can be greater than the alpha level you specified The problem is that it does not maintain the family-wise error rate at the specified level (1). We offer this test only for compatibility with old versions of Prism and other programs, but we suggest you avoid it. This test cannot compute confidence intervals, and for this reason we prefer the Tukey test This test is more powerful than the Tukey method (3), which means that it can sometimes find a statistically significant difference where the Tukey method cannot. If you assume homoscedasticity (equal SDs), you choices are: The available choices depend on whether you assume homoscedasticity (equal SDs, so equal variances) on the first tab of the ANOVA dialog. Correct for multiple comparisons using statistical hypothesis testing Compare every mean with every other mean The choices depend on the goal you specified on the Multiple Comparisons (second) tab and whether or not you chose to assume equal SDs on the Experimental Design (first) tab.

Once you’ve chosen an approach, choose the test.

Prism will calculate the Brown-Forsythe and Welch ANOVA, followed by appropriate multiple comparisons tests: Games-Howell, Tamhane T2, DunnettT3 tests. One-way ANOVA without assuming the data were sampled from populations with equal standard deviations.Test for homogeneity of variance by calculating the nonparametric correlation between the predicted Y values and the absolute value of the residuals.When values are missing (sample sizes are unequal), Prism shows the predicted LSmeans (least square means). View a table of cell, row, column and grand means.Prism 8 can do it also with two- and three-way ANOVA. Prism 7 could already do this with one-way ANOVA. Correct for lack of sphericity with the Geisser-Greenhouse correction.Now you can choose "litter" or "animal" or "patient" or. Earlier versions always used the name "subject". Analyze three-way ANOVA with repeated measures in any or all of the three factors.Other improvements in repeated measures ANOVA Of course, the results can be interpreted only if you assume that the values are missing for random reasons. The analysis works differently than ANOVA but gives the same main results when there are no missing values and gives useful results when there are missing values. Prism 8 can now analyze repeated measures data (one-, two- and three-way) by fitting a mixed effects model. This is not actually possible, but we did it anyway! This is a huge problem, and many people have asked us to do repeated measures ANOVA with missing values. Repeated measures ANOVA cannot be computed when even a single value is missing. Analyze repeated measures data with missing values.
