Tips on Setting Up Your Data for Two-Factor with Replication

To analyze data, Excel requires you to set the data up in a way that can be analyzed.

The example below shows how to set up the data for two categories of patients treated with three different drugs.

Then, if you're just interested in the single factor DRUGS, select and run a ANOVA single factor on the three drug columns.

If you're interested in a ANOVA two-factor analysis (patients vs drugs), select and run a two-factor analysis with repetition (more than one patient in the category receives the same drug).
