Assumption of Linearity:Hint: Run a series of scatter plots between the pre-test variable and post-test variable for each group. Begin by going to Data > Split File (see lesson 15, p. 64), and then make the plots. Add line of fit. See Warner p. 168- 172. After making the scatterplots, go to Data > Split File > RESET before continuing with the analysis.
