n-way anova produces the same p-value for all groups

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have 6 vectors of values. These are split into groups i and m. There are 3 i groups and 2 m groups, which yields a combination of 6 total groups. Supposedly, my data should indicate that the data I have are grouped better according to 'Hm' vs 'Rm' than 'Li' vs 'Ri' vs 'Hi'. When I run the ANOVA using anovan() I get the same P-value for the i grouping, the m grouping and i*m interaction. When I plot the distributions using a boxplot they are clearly more separable along the m dimension.
All necessary files are attached. I'm using R2021a
I am running:
mdacdlcdp=[cdlcdpLiRm;cdlcdpLiHm;cdlcdpRiRm;cdlcdpRiHm;cdlcdpHiRm;cdlcdpHiHm];
p=anovan(mdacdlcdp,{igroup,mgroup},'model','interaction','varnames',{'i','m'})
But the results shown below are not consistent with my expectations.

I ran these codes with my computer (WIndows, MATLAB 2021a)
load('anovadata.mat')
load('igroup.mat')
load('mgroup.mat')
mdacdlcdp=[cdlcdpLiRm;cdlcdpLiHm;cdlcdpRiRm;cdlcdpRiHm;cdlcdpHiRm;cdlcdpHiHm];
p=anovan(mdacdlcdp,{igroup,mgroup},'model','interaction','varnames',{'i','m'})
and got these results. Could you confirm you run your code correctly?

Thank you for your reply. I ran the exact same code as you, copied and pasted from your response, but got the same results as before. Is there a low level problem with my computer? I also have 2020b installed, but it gives me the same results as 2021a. I have rebooted my PC too, but no luck.

One of the toolboxes I permanently added to my startup path was causing the problem. I muted all the starup addpaths and it worked like normal. Sorry for all the fuss
