Are you referring to adjusted F-statistics, or adjusted F-values. The use
of the F-distribution (F-values) in repeated measures designs is
predicated on some rather restrictive assumptions regarding the nature of
the variance-covariance matrix of the repeated measures. If that
assumption is violated, then one may adjust the df using the results of
Geisser and Greenhouse. This adjustment assumes a "maximum" violation.
However, one can estimate the degree to which the assumption is violated
and calculate a "constant" that is used to adjust the df for that
particular situation. This "exact" adjustment is available in the SPSS
Manova procedure using either of the two "epsilons".
