What Does a Significant Manova Mean

If a main effect is significant, the level means for the factor are significantly different from each other across all responses in your model. If an interaction term is significant, the effects of each factor are different at each level of the other factors across all responses in your model.

What does a significant MANOVA tell you?

The one-way multivariate analysis of variance (one-way MANOVA) is used to determine whether there are any differences between independent groups on more than one continuous dependent variable. In this regard, it differs from a one-way ANOVA, which only measures one dependent variable.

How do you interpret an F value in MANOVA?

A sufficiently large F-value indicates that the term or model is significant. If you want to use the F-value to determine whether to reject the null hypothesis, compare the F-value to your critical value.
