Dear all,
I would like to know which is the right way to check the normality  assumption 
for performing ANOVA. How do you check normality for the  following example?

I did an experiment where people had to evaluate on a 7 point scale, the  
degree 
of realism of some stimuli presented in 2 conditions.

The problem is that if I check normality with the Shapiro test I get that the 
data are not normally distributed.

Someone suggested me that I don´t have to check the normality of the  data, but 
the normality of the residuals I get after the fitting of the  linear model.
I really ask you to help me to understand this point as I don´t find enough 
material online where to solve it.

If the data are not normally distributed I have to use the kruskal wallys test 
and not the ANOVA...so please help
me to understand.

I make a numerical example, could you please tell me if the data in this table 
are normally distributed or not?

Help!
