SAS Handout 18 (Covariance structure approach to repeated measures) is posted below.
Slides on the covariance structure approach to repeated measures are also posted below.
Chapter 7 (Factorial ANOVA) and Chapter 8 (Multivariate
analysis and repeated measures) are posted below. They are a bit rough
(produced with an obsolete Mac word processor in the remote past, and only
slightly revised for this edition of the textbook), but still possibly
useful. There seem to be some minor font problems. For example, the first page
of Chapter 8 has å=0.05 where the original document has
α=0.05.
Chapter 7 is long. It has a section on choice of sample size by power and
other methods. We did not get to this and you are not responsible for it, but
you may find it helpful some day. Also, we somehow missed interactions between
quantitative and categorical independent variables, as well as interactions
between quantitative and quantitative. That's in Chapter 7 too. Chapter 7
includes a detailed analysis of the Greenhouse data (fungus growing on canola
plants). This occupies 35 pages; you can view it as a case study in how to
find out what's going on in a data set by testing contrasts. If you want a
closer look at this topic you can read the case study. Otherwise, skip it.
Chapter 9 (Introduction to R) is posted below. You are not
responsible for this material. The chapter illustrates R in a unix
environment, but it's not installed on tuzo. I can't get it
installed, and I can never reember all the technical reasons it's "impossible"
for more than a day after I hear them. However, the language is almost
completely the same on a desktop machine.
Chapter 10 (Permutation tests and the bootstrap) is posted
below. You are not responsible for this.
