Typically my brain processes region as living location.  Region as a within subject variable therefore is an alien concept.   I contend that Joost needs to better explain what his/her data are if anyone is likely to be of help aside from making ESPeculations!

Joost,

It may be just how you named your variables and my assumption that 'subjects' are persons but I'm having difficulty understanding how you have a repeated measures design. I don't understand what is repeated. Is var1, var2 and var3 the repeated element within a region or is region1, region2, etc the repeated element for var1. Perhaps somebody else understands this better than I do.

Subject: question

Hi,

my SPSS-file consists of rows and columns (obviously). every row is a
subject and every column is a variable. my subjects can be divided in 2
groups. i have 3 variables that belong to a "region" such that my table
looks like:

   region1_var1 region1_var2 region1_var3 region2_var1 region2_var2 ...etc.
subject1
subject2
subject3
.
.
.
etc.

i thus have a between-subjects factor: group and (i think) 1 within-subjects
factor: region.

i would like to do a test that tests whether there is an effect of region
for my 2 groups. this test -if significant- may allow me to
'post-hoc'-assess the regions separately. can this be done using the
Repeated Measures analysis under the General Linear Model?

thanks,
-joost
