The purpose of the present paper is to illustrate the use of multivariate techniques to analyze repeated measures ANOVA designs. As compared to a conventional repeated measures ANOVA, such techniques require less strict assumptions about population variances and covariances. A comprehensive illustrative example is given for the case of a three-way design with two factors repeated. Differences between the results for this multivariate analysis and those for a conventional analysis of the same data are discussed. General reasons for such differences are discussed.
