We are classifying 'one-way' according to the group or treatment. Two Way Analysis of Variance is a way of studying OR LEARNING the effects of two factors separately (their main effects) and (sometimes) together (their interaction effect).
Example: Learn about staff satisfaction
Conduct a two-way ANOVA with post hoc tests to compare staff satisfaction scores (totsatis) across each of the length of service categories (use the servicegp3 variable) for permanent versus casual staff (employstatus) (http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:TPwGFQ5blPkJ:www.allenandunwin.com/spss/business_chpt18.pdf+anova+IN+BUSINESS&hl=en).
