I am trying to calculate eta-squared for a MANOVA with one factor/IV and multiple DVs, using the syntax below. I'm using my ouput to manually calculate eta-squared--or trying to, at least! I'm trying to calculate eta-squared by

 SSb/SSt (the sum of SSb plus SS error), which is the same formula for calculating partial eta-squared, and indeed my manual calculations match the output for partial eta-squared. However, I don't want partial eta-squared. I think I read somewhere that with one IV these will be the same, but the total is greater than one, which doesn't make sense for eta-squared.

 

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? I don't have a MANOVA example for calculating eta-squared, and clearly whatever I'm doing isn't right. I need to provide eta-squared, not partial eta-squared. With only one IV/Factor, the only values I have for SSt are SSb and SSerror, whereas my ANOVA example has SS values for two IVs and their interaction, and the SS for error is included as well.
