Problem Description: How do you run a repeated measures Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) with a constant covariate in SPSS MIXED?

Resolution Subject: Running this analysis in MIXED is very straightforward.

Resolution Description: Running this analysis in MIXED is very straightforward. Because time is the most common dimension in which repeated measures are taken, repeated measures ANCOVA with a constant covariate is sometimes known as repeated measures with a non-time-varying covariate. This solution will provide the command syntax for estimating this model in SPSS MIXED using sample data from Winer (1971), p.803.

Here is command syntax for reading in the sample data from Winer:

DATA LIST FREE / person a b x y . 
BEGIN DATA 
1 1 1 3 10 
1 1 2 3 8 
2 1 1 5 15 
2 1 2 5 12 
3 1 1 8 20 
3 1 2 8 14 
4 1 1 2 12 
4 1 2 2 6 
5 2 1 1 15 
5 2 2 1 10 
6 2 1 8 25 
6 2 2 8 20 
7 2 1 10 20 
7 2 2 10 15 
8 2 1 2 15 
8 2 2 2 10 
END DATA. 

*Here is the command syntax for running the ANCOVA model. 

MIXED Y BY a b WITH x 
/FIXED = a b a*b x 
/REPEATED = b | SUBJECT(person) COVTYPE(CS).
