I think a VERY simple analysis question but I am at a lost as a novice to
statistics AND SPSS 🙁 We did a test on three homogenic groups (test A, B and C) (people in the group are homogenic as well as the groups compared to each other) of 100 students each to find out if packaging can influence the taste of a certain kind of candy. We know all the students do not normally like this type of candy. Each individual was asked to look closely at the packaging and after tasting the candy to point to a 5 point likert scale from 1 to 5 ((1)Very Good, Good, OK, Bad, (5) Very Bad). We have 3 hypotheses: 1. We think packaging used in test A will have no effect on the taste experience 2. We think packaging used in test B will have little positive effect on the taste experience 2. We think packaging used in test C will have significant positive effect on the taste experience. EXAMPLE: the data looks like this. Meaning test A we 5 likert scale results of which 1 was Very Good and 3 was Good and 1 was OK, etc). In reality we have 370 results. A = 1 A = 2 A = 2 A = 2 A = 3 B = 2 B = 2 B = 3 B = 3 The data is already in SPSS the A, B and C values are actually numbers "ofcourse" in de data view tab. I have two variables set. TEST Numeric 8 0 {1, CNTEST}... None 11 Right Ordinal Input TASTE Numeric 8 0 {1, Very Good}... None 11 Right Ordinal Input What is the best analyses to use on this. A few pointers would be very VERY appreciated. -- Sent from: http://spssx-discussion.1045642.n5.nabble.com/ ===================== To manage your subscription to SPSSX-L, send a message to [hidden email] (not to SPSSX-L), with no body text except the command.

From the weaknesses of design, I figure that this must be a student's design for an assignment.
How do you test a likert-type variable? - usually, as if it were continuous, equal-interval, and normally distributed.
How do you test three groups on one continuous variable? - ANOVA.
How do you test an "ordered-groups" hypothesis? - Do a linear contrast across the groups, which is very similar to (if it is not completely the same test as) the correlation between the two variables; or do a t-test
between the extreme groups.
How do you improve the design? - There is much more power for simple comparisons (like this one) when one subject does multiple ratings.
There is very little burden on a subject tasting candies to do more than one rating, but showing the same candy in three wrappings is not a great idea. I would suggest, Let each student rate three different candies,
with randomized order of wrappings. By the way, "all the students do not normally like this type of candy" seems very unlikely, or the candy has a major marketing problem.

I'm with you, John. I teach research methods, measurement, and statistics. The university has very strict rules governing ethics. Although the ethics policy is very long, the statement referring students to the policy ends with "Cheating, collusion, misconduct, fabrication, and plagiarism are considered serious offenses and violations can result in penalties up to and including expulsion from the University." On the other hand, I'm not sure that sometimes we don't have a student who's doing a directed study or internship and is free to ask resources, like the listserv, for assistance, that doesn't violate any ethical considerations.
