I have secondary data on doctor mistakes (outcome variable) for all 50 states in USA by doctor specialty. I mean real numbers per state. I want to assess the relationship between doctor mistakes (outcome variable) and state of doctor practice (predictor #1) and doctor specialty (Predictor #2) (internist, Surgeon and OBGYN).I want to adjust for the following confounders: provider factor, hospital factor, patient factor and miscellaneous factor. I don't have real data for these 4 confounders.

Hypotheses:

1. no association or interaction between doctor mistake and state of doctor practice

2. no association or interaction between doctor mistake and doctor specialty

I want to do 2-way ANOVA using SPSS and my Excel table currently looks like this (other states not shown here):

State Doctor Specialty Doctor Mistake Doctor Factor Hospital Factor Patient Factor Miscellaneous Factor
Alabama Internist 100
Alabama Surgeon 345
Alabama OBGYN 502
Alaska Internist 270
Alaska Surgeon 150
Alaska OBGYN 39

Questions:

1. I ran 2-way anova assumptions (homoscedasticity and normality but the output has nothing under F and Sig (it has dots instead). What happened and how do I fix it?

2. I also ran 2-way anova with simulated values for the confounders but the output has nothing under F and Sig (it has dots instead). What happened and how do I fix it?

3. Is the Excel table good for 2-way ANOVA in SPSS or what is the correct format?
