This dataset is designed for teaching Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). The dataset is a subset of data derived from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class of 1998–99 (ECLSK) at the National Center for Education Statistics, and the example shows how to test whether kindergarten students’ scores on a general knowledge test in the Spring differ across income categories, adjusting for their general knowledge score from the preceding Fall. The dataset file is accompanied by a teaching guide, a student guide, and a how-to guide for SPSS.

Methods: General linear models, Analysis of covariance, Longitudinal research

Prerequisites: One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)

Data Type: Survey

Software Guide: SPSS
