Average total creativity scores for all the three treatments gradually increased with time (week).

4Part II: Box’s TestThe Box’s test result was statistically insignificant as p value was greater than 0.001. Hence, theassumption of repeated ANOVA has been met. So it was assumed that the observed covariancematrices of the dependent variables are equal across groups.Table 2: Box's Test of Equality of Covariance MatricesaBox's M12.145F.629df112df2697.846Sig..818Part III: Multivariate TestWilk’s lambda signified that with respect to week, the change in creativity score was significant, but when combined with the treatment type change seemed to be statistically insignificant with pvalue level as 0.05.Part IV: Mauchly's Test of SphericitySphericity assumption was met for repeated measure ANOVA with p value (0.15) greater than 0.05. Part V: Tests of Within-Subjects EffectsAssuming sphericity, it was observed that creativity scores significantly increase with respect totime, which was weeks in this study. But, when composite effect of week with treatment levelswas considered, the result became statistically insignificant with p value (0.054) greater than0.05. Hence creativity across treatment group was not statistically increasing with time.
