A test for this comparison goes under various names the Williams test, Williams-Hotelling or Hotelling test.

An example of its use together with syntax is given below. Just cut and paste into a SPSS syntax window to use. You can also use the Williams-Hotelling test by typing equalcor at a UNIX prompt on a CBU machine.
