I've never had much success at getting post hoc tests out of SPSS, either, so I'd like to see the answer posted to the list if possible. Rob - were you able to get post hoc tests to follow up on the main effect (i.e., to see which ethnic groups were significantly different from each other)?
thanks,

TIPS folk,

I'm having an SPSS hardship on a research project I'm working on.  I have
not found someone who can help me figure this out on my campus.  Perhaps a
TIPster could help?

I am trying to analyze data using a 2X5 ANOVA.  I have two independent
variables and one dependent variable.  The IVs are ethnicity (5 groups)
and citizenship (2 groups--yes/no) and DV score on a measure (continuous
variable).

I know there is a main effect for ethnicity on score.
There is no main effect for citizenship on score.
There is an interaction for ethnicity and citizenship on score.

So, here's the question:

I want to analyze the differences for each ethnic group whether or not
they are citizens for score.  So, for example, I want to know if it
matters whether or not Latinos are citizens on their score.

I can get the interaction effects, but I can't figure out how to get SPSS
to reveal the statistics I'm interested in.  My SPSS book says to use an
/L matrix, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to set up the syntax.
Does anyone know how to attain what I'm looking for?


Thanks for any advice!

Rob
