This paper describes a computer program which tests all pairwise comparisons of adjusted means in analysis of covariance by using Tukey-Kramer Test. The program contains: means of covariate, adjusted means of the criterion measure, sample size, mean square error, and the desired percentile point on the Studentized range distribution. (JAZ)

The Johnson-Neyman (JN) technique is a parametric alternative to analysis of covariance that permits nonparallel regression lines. This article presents computer programs for J-N using the transformational languages of SPSS-X and SAS. The programs are designed for two groups and one covariate. (Author/JAZ)

Provided is a description of three methods for testing certain types of a priori hypotheses about differences among covariance matrices. Briefly outlined are procedures for using two computer programs, COFAMM and LISREL, for testing such hypotheses. Also provided are examples of application of the methods to a meaningful data set.

Describes the development, implementation, and assessment of an interactive multimedia instruction (IMI) program that used interactive videodisc to teach listening skills. Results of an experimental study with college students at Radford University (Virginia) that tested the effectiveness of the IMI program are discussed, and future applications…

Structural equation models require formidable computational techniques. Testing the goodness of fit involves discrepancies between original correlations among variables and correlations estimated by solved path coefficients. A BASIC computer program which solves these problems is presented and discussed. (Author/GDC)

A two-step procedure is developed for the analysis of pretest-posttest data. Nonlinear canonical correlation analysis is followed by covariance analysis of optimally scaled pretest and posttest measures. The procedure is available in the computer program CANALS. Advantages of the two-step procedure are discussed. (SLD)

An implementation of the Gauss-Newton algorithm for the analysis of covariance structure that is specifically adapted for high-level computer languages is reviewed. This simple method for estimating structural equation models is useful for a variety of standard models, as is illustrated. (SLD)

This study investigated the impact of integrated learning systems, problem solving software, and simulation software on elementary students' reading performance. Results indicate students entering fourth through sixth grade profited more from instruction supplemented by problem-solving and simulation software than from skills instruction. Results…

Describes aptitude treatment interaction study that used the cognitive styles field dependence and independence matched with computerized algorithmic and discovery treatments to determine mathematics achievement on a criterion-referenced test. Posttest mathematics scores and student responses to the computer are analyzed, and mastery learning is…
