You could use one way anova if you choose to ignore the teachers under each method. You could also include the schools where the teaching took place. If you include either one of those two factors in the analysis they could be considered as random factors.

As an example I developed an experiment where I measured the effects of two cleaner products on tile grout. Having two people applying the treatments required that the applicators be introduced as random factors.

Ahmed,

Now that I have seen the variables, it appears that the four learning types are actually scores on four distinct variables, representing different learning styles. This changes the nature of the analysis considerably. You should consider correlation and regression. It would be possible to conduct a one-way ANOVA, classifying subjects by their highest score on the four learning variables, but this approach would lose a lot of information (e.g., it does not distinguish between people who are slightly higher on one of the four learning styles from those who are a lot higher on one of the styles.

Can you tell us a little more about your research questions and hypotheses?

HTH,

Stephen Brand

Hello SPSS'ers:

I have two variables, independent (types of learning; 4 types) and one independent variable (understanding scores). I wanna investigate the effect of those 4 types of learning on the understanding. Which analysis would be appropriate in this regard? One-way or two-way ANOVA? Please advise. Thanks alot

Ahmed
