Details

For the hypothetical data contained in Table 13.2, the linear and quadratic D variables were formed by making use of the appropriate coefficients from Appendix Table A.10. Because the eight participants were measured at three occasions, both a linear and a quadratic effect can be tested. The question of interest in this instance is: "is there a linear and/or quadratic trend exhibited by the group over time?" Recall that in the book (pages 646-647) it was shown that the D variables for linear and quadratic effects led to an omnibus F test of 19.148, which was a value previously obtained for the omnibus effect. Because the particular values chosen for the D variables do not matter (unless it leads to a linear combination of columns), we will focus only on the tests of the individual contrasts when analyzing the data given in Table 12. Because columns one and two already represent the linear and quadratic effect respectively, all that needs to be done is to test mean of the column in order to determine if it differs from zero.

Table 13.14 shows the slope of the least-squares regression line for each of the eight subjects, as well as the score on the linear D variable, reproduced from Table 13.12. There is a strikin relationship between the numbers in the two columns of Table 13.14. Every subject's score on D is 24 times his or her slope.
