Subject:      Post Hoc Interactions

I have a study with 2 groups (Group 1 (N=12) and Group 2 (N=10)), all of
whom took 4 different tests of memory (Test 1= Visual Recall; Test 2= Visual
Recognition; Test 3= Verbal Recall; Test 4= Verbal Recognition). Using SPSS,
I ran a repeated-measures ANOVA, Within factor TEST (4 levels) and Between
factor GROUP (2 levels), and the overall result was significant.

However,

I am interested in answering whether the difference between Group 1 and
Group 2 on recall is significantly greater than the difference between Group
1 and Group 2 on recognition - ?

Also, I am interested in whether the difference between Group 1 and Group 2
on visual is significantly greater than the difference between Group 1 and
Group 2 on verbal - ?

What is a valid way to look at these interactions? How do I do post hoc
testing to get at the answers to these two questions?

Thanks!
