Usually a repeated measures ANCOVA is used for comparing results at different times. For my study, this is not the case as the within-subjects variable is a sports category (basketball or football). It appears that the dependent variable consumer satisfaction does not significantly change based on sport category.
Can I exclude sports category from further analysis, mean average both dependent variables and group them under consumer satisfaction: sports and conduct a regular ANOVA?
No because sports is much bigger than basketball and football. Further p-value selection of IVs is a poor idea. Further how does this change your research question.? Best, D. Booth
I understand that sport is much larger than basketball and soccer. I just meant creating a mean average score of both sports grouped together. The intention was to create an average consumer satisfaction for both sports to mimize the chance that an individual sport would affect the results.
