Abstract
Analytical procedures to fitting multivariate repeated measures designs. In this work we review two usual procedures to fit multivariate repeated measures design, the multivariate mixed model approach (MMM) and doubly multivariate model approach (DMM), as a generalization of techniques used in univariate design. We offer a detailed comment of statistical packages using this design (SPSS and BMDP) and we review the analytical procedures of the two methods. We conclude that SPSS provides very detailed results and different sphericity multisampling criteria. Users of BMDP must be then extremely careful interpreting the results of statistical analysis of multivariate repeated measures designs.
