Thanks so much for taking a minute to read this!
I am planning a dissertation and IF could get some feedback as to if I am on the right track, that would be great!
I am planning on conducting a study that compares the effect of student type (ELL, students with LD and typical students) on orthographic development as measured by 3 scores (feature points, spelling stage and words correct). Test scores have been measured at 3 different times (Fall, Winter and Spring). I will be conducting repeated measures ANOVAs for students in grades K, 1, and 2 separately.
Would I run these as three separate repeated measures ANOVA for each of the scores?
And one more question: The one measure is spelling stage. This test assigns a sequential stage as a descriptor to a cluster of developmental skills. (i.e the first stage is Emergent Writing- Early, then comes Emergent Writing- Middle etc). I was planning on assigning a numerical value to each of the stages- the first stage=1, the second stage = 2, etc. But I am wondering if that is flawed statistically? What is your opinion?
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!
