I have secondary data on doctor mistakes (outcome variable) for all 50 states in USA by doctor specialty. I mean real numbers per state. I want to assess the relationship between doctor mistakes (outcome variable) and state of doctor practice (predictor #1) and doctor specialty (Predictor #2) (internist, Surgeon and OBGYN).I want to adjust for the following confounders: provider factor, hospital factor, patient factor and miscellaneous factor. I have simulated data for these 4 confounders.

Hypotheses:

1. no association or interaction between doctor mistake and state of doctor practice

2. no association or interaction between doctor mistake and doctor specialty

I want to do 2-way ANOVA using SPSS and my Excel table currently looks like this (other states not shown here. I will complete the homework by myself. I just need a guide. This is the reason for this question)

State Doctor Specialty Doctor Mistake
Alabama Internist 100
Alabama Surgeon 345
Alabama OBGYN 502
Alaska Internist 270
Alaska Surgeon 150
Alaska OBGYN 39

Question:

List all facts and essential information that must be contained in doctoral-level research after completing 2-way ANOVA (ANCOVA) in SPSS for clarity, credibility, and comprehension:

  1. Report/discussion/interpretation: What information must be here after completing 2-way ANOVA (ANCOVA)?
  2. Conclusion: What information must be here after completing 2-way ANOVA (ANCOVA)?
  3. Recommendation for future research: What information must be here after completing 2-way ANOVA (ANCOVA)?
