Hi David,

Using your data layout with simulated data, I got this dataset:

DATA LIST FREE/ subject repet wordproc task depvar. BEGIN DATA 1 1 1 1 2 1 2 2 2 8 1 3 3 3 12 1 4 4 4 5 2 1 2 1 3 2 2 3 2 13 2 3 4 3 6 2 4 1 4 8 3 1 3 1 1 3 2 4 2 2 3 3 1 3 2 3 4 2 4 0 4 1 4 1 12 4 2 1 2 3 4 3 2 3 14 4 4 3 4 18 5 1 1 2 11 5 2 2 3 5 5 3 3 4 14 5 4 4 1 1 6 1 2 2 2 6 2 3 3 14 6 3 4 4 4 6 4 1 1 4 7 1 3 2 12 7 2 4 3 19 7 3 1 4 4 7 4 2 1 6 8 1 4 2 1 8 2 1 3 14 8 3 2 4 2 8 4 3 1 1 9 1 1 3 3 9 2 2 4 1 9 3 3 1 13 9 4 4 2 13 10 1 2 3 17 10 2 3 4 7 10 3 4 1 9 10 4 1 2 14 11 1 3 3 4 11 2 4 4 15 11 3 1 1 1 11 4 2 2 10 12 1 4 3 13 12 2 1 4 18 12 3 2 1 6 12 4 3 2 10 13 1 1 4 15 13 2 2 1 2 13 3 3 2 11 13 4 4 3 19 14 1 2 4 6 14 2 3 1 10 14 3 4 2 10 14 4 1 3 5 15 1 3 4 6 15 2 4 1 18 15 3 1 2 8 15 4 2 3 1 16 1 4 4 6 16 2 1 1 12 16 3 2 2 12 16 4 3 3 15 END DATA. VAR LABEL wordproc 1'A' 2'B' 3'C' 4'D'. VAR LABEL task 1'Task 1' 2'Task 2' 3'Task 3' 4'Task 4'.

* The following statistical analysis takes care of all the potential sources of heterogeneity and all the interesting factors *.

UNIANOVA depvar BY wordproc task subject repet /RANDOM = subject repet /METHOD = SSTYPE(3) /INTERCEPT = EXCLUDE /SAVE = RESID /EMMEANS = TABLES(wordproc) COMPARE ADJ(BONFERRONI) /EMMEANS = TABLES(task) COMPARE ADJ(BONFERRONI) /PLOT = RESIDUALS /CRITERIA = ALPHA(.05) /DESIGN = wordproc task task*wordproc subject repet .

You could also try SPSS procedure MIXED.

D> I'm interested to conduct an experiment study. The first goal is to D> investigate the effect of four different word processors (independent D> variable) on the time completion (dependent variable). The second goal is D> to investigate the effect of task difficulties (independent variable) on D> the time completion (dependent variable).

D> Sixteen subjects are required to use four different word processors (A, B, D> C and D). To avoid learning effect, the subjects are given four different D> tasks (1,2,3 and 4). A randomized block design is created as follow. D> --------------------------------------------- D> | | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S1 | A | B | C | D | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S2 | B | C | D | A | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S3 | C | D | A | B | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S4 | D | A | B | C | D> ---------------------------------------------

D> --------------------------------------------- D> | | Task 2 | Task 3 | Task 4 | Task 1 | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S5 | A | B | C | D | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S6 | B | C | D | A | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S7 | C | D | A | B | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S8 | D | A | B | C | D> ---------------------------------------------

D> --------------------------------------------- D> | | Task 3 | Task 4 | Task 1 | Task 2 | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S9 | A | B | C | D | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S10 | B | C | D | A | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S11 | C | D | A | B | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S12 | D | A | B | C | D> ---------------------------------------------

D> --------------------------------------------- D> | | Task 4 | Task 1 | Task 2 | Task 3 | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S13 | A | B | C | D | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S14 | B | C | D | A | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S15 | C | D | A | B | D> --------------------------------------------- D> | S16 | D | A | B | C | D> ---------------------------------------------

D> 1. Can SPSS analyze the above design even though there are many empty D> cells? D> 2. Or is there any other softwares that can analyze the factorial design?
