Notes: The epsilon value is a correction used when the sphericity assumption is not met. The number is multiplied by the numerator and denominator degrees of freedom within the subject test and the outcome used to calculate the significance level according to Greenhouse-Geisser (G-G) and Huynh-Feldt (H-F) adjustments. M = Mauchly’s W. P values of 0.000 were < 0.0001.
