A two-way ANOVA was conducted to examine the effects of gender head and education level on monthly per capita food expenditure. There was no significant interaction between gender head and education level. While there were no differences between gender heads within each education level, there were significant differences in expenditure between education levels overall. Simple main effects tests showed no significant differences in expenditure between gender heads at each education level.

To understand
consumption pattern
through software
packages
3. 1. How to Analyze consumption
pattern?
2. What are procedure available
for estimating consumption
pattern and how to do with
Econometric software
4. Two-way ANOVA using SPSS
The two-way ANOVA compares the mean differences
between groups that have been split on two
independent variables (called factors). You need two
independent, categorical variables and one
continuous, dependent variable .
5. Objective
We are interested in whether an monthly per capita
food expenditure was influenced by their level of
education and their gender head. Monthly per capita
food expenditure with higher value meaning a better
off. The researcher then divided the participants by
gender head of HHs i.e Male head & Female head HHs
and then again by level of education.
6. In SPSS we separated the HHs into their appropriate
groups by using two columns representing the two
independent variables and labelled them “Head_Sex"
and “Head_Edu". For “head_sex", we coded males as
"1" and females as “0", and for “Head_Edu", we coded
illiterate as "1", can sign only as "2" and can read only as
"3“ and can read & write as “4”. Monthly per capita food
expenditure was entered under the variable name,
“pcmfx".
7. How to correctly enter your data into SPSS in order to
run a two-way ANOVA
8. Testing of Assumptions
In SPSS, homogeneity of variances is tested using
Levene's Test for Equality of Variances. This is
included in the main procedure for running the two-
way ANOVA, so we get to evaluate whether there is
homogeneity of variances at the same time as we get
the results from the two-way ANOVA.
9. Perform the two-anova test
procedure which is explained in the
previous session.
10. Tests of Between-Subjects Effects Table
The table shows the actual results of the two-way ANOVA as
shown
We are interested in the head of hhs gender, education and
head_sex*head_edu rows of the table as highlighted above.
These rows inform us of whether we have significant mean
differences between our groups for our two independent
variables, head_sex and head_edu, and for their interaction,
head_sex*head_edu. We must first look at the
head_sex*head_edu interaction as this is the most important
result we are after. We can see from the Sig. column that we have
a statistically NOT significant interaction at the P = .686 level.
You may wish to report the results ofhead_sex and head_edu as
well. We can see from the above table that there was no
significant difference in monthly per capita food exp between
head_sex (P = .675) but there were significant differences
between educational levels (P < .000).

16. The following plot is not of sufficient quality to
present in your reports but provides a good graphical
illustration of your results. In addition, we can get an
idea of whether there is an interaction effect by
inspecting whether the lines are parallel or not.
17. From this plot we
can see how our
results from the
previous table
might make
sense. Remember
that if the lines
are not parallel
then there is the
possibility of an
interaction taking
place.
18. Procedure for Simple Main Effects
in SPSS
You can follow up the results of a significant interaction
effect by running tests for simple main effects - that is,
the mean difference in monthly per capita food
expenditure between head of gender HHs at each
education level. SPSS does not allow you to do this
using the graphical interface you will be familiar with,
but requires you to use syntax.
20. Click File > New > Syntax from the main menu as shown below
21. You will be presented with the Syntax Editor as shown below:
Type text into the syntax editor so that you end up with the
following (the colours are automatically added):
[Depending on the version of SPSS you are using you might
have suggestion boxes appear when you type in SPSS-
recognised commands, such as, UNIANOVA. If you are
familiar with using this type of auto-prediction then please
feel free to do so, but otherwise simply ignore the pop-up
suggestions and keep typing normally
23. Basically, all text you see above that is in CAPITALS, is
required by SPSS and does not change when you enter
your own data. Non-capitalised text represents your
variables and will change when you use your own data.
Breaking it all down, we have:
UNIANOVA Tells SPSS to use the Univariate Anova command
Your dependent variable BY your two independent
pcmfx BY head_sex, head_edu
variables (with a space between them)
/EMMEANS Tells SPSS to calculate estimated marginal means
Generate statistics for the interaction term. Put your
TABLES(head_sex*head_edu) two independent variables here, separated by a * to
denote an interaction
Tells SPSS to compare the interaction term between
COMPARE(head_sex)
genders
24. Making sure that the cursor is at
the end of row 2 in the syntax
editor click the button, which
will run the syntax you have typed.
Your results should appear in the
Output Viewer below the results
you have already generated.

28. You should emphasize the results from the interaction first,
before you mention the main effects. In addition, you should
report whether your dependent variable was normally
distributed for each group and how you measured it (we will
provide an example below).
A two-way ANOVA was conducted that examined the effect of
head of gender and education level on per capita monthly
food expenditure. There was no homogeneity of variance
between groups as assessed by Levene's test for equality of
error variances. There was a no significant interaction
between the effects of head of gender and education level on
per capita monthly food expenditure, F =0.377, P = .686.
Simple main effects analysis showed that male headed HH
were NOT significantly different in monthly per capita food
expenditure than female headed HH when educated to read
& write, but there were differences in monthly per capita food
expenditure when the head of HHs educated to read & write
(P = .000), However, there was no significant different
between male head and female head HHs in pcmfx.
