Based on your description so far and on my making a reasonable set of assumptions that would still need to be checked, your analysis would appear to be a multivariate (connectedness, learning) analysis of covariance of a 5 (information exposure) by 3 (previous experience) design with 2 covariates (frequency, duration). You really should consult one of the myriad of analysis of variance texts.

Iâm just setting up the experiment and need help explaining what the data analysis would be. Let me know of any questionsâ¦.. what would be compared and how it would be measured. Is it a multi-way or 1-way anova? Thanks! A 5 X 1 between-subject design will be used for the experiment. Four tool groups (Group1, Group2, Group3, Group4) will be able to view one category of information that their groups are allowed to in their tools. The control group, however, will have no access to the experimental tool. Pre-survey has demographic and previous experience questionnaire. The independent variable is the exposure to the information. The independent variable has five levels: no information, appearance information, educational information, contact information, and personal information. The dependent variable will be (2 dependent variables) gathered through a questionnaire at the end of the study. Connectedness. This variable will be operationalized as the Connectedness score Learning. This variable will be operationalized as the Learning score Covariates: Frequency of using tool Duration of tool use Previous experience (three types of previous experience).
