widely used in the field of Education, Medication,
Economics, and Industry.
› Program functionality is broken into over a dozen different
modules which are sold individually.

Advanced Modules.
› SPSS data files include both the data and also variable
information (variable and value labels, formats, and missing
values)
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 4

INTRODUCTION

statistical and information analysis
› With SPSS we can …
 Prepare Statistical tables, Graphs, Pie charts,
Frequency polygon curves, histograms, etc.
 Comparison of mean with t-test, Z-test, ANOVA,
etc.
 Perform advanced statistical analysis like multiple
regression, factor analysis, analysis of variance,

OPENING SPSS
The default window will have the data editor
There are two sheets in the window:
1. Data view 2. Variable view
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 7

DATA VIEW
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 8

DATA VIEW
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 9

DATA VIEW
› When SPSS is opened,
a blank spreadsheet
appears.
› We can enter data in
the cells of this sheet.
› In this editor there
are no column
headings (variable
Names), it is entered
in the Variable View.
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 10

DATA VIEW
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 11

VARIABLE VIEW
› Data should be entered with one variable in one column
› It should have a name called the field name of the
variable name
› By choosing variable view we can see the file list of
variable and their properties.
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 12

VARIABLE VIEW
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 13

VARIABLE VIEW
› Rules for Naming the variables
• Special characters like, @,# are not allowed in
defining names.
• No two fields should have the same name
• Names should not have spaces in between
• Educational level is wrong
• EDU_LEV is preferred
• SPSS would pick up duplicate names and assigns a
new and unique name like V1, V2, etc.
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 14

VARIABLE VIEW
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 15

VARIABLE VIEW
› SPSS has a provision for attaching a label to the variable name
› Income_ Group is a variable name but its label could be more
descriptive like INCOME OF THE RESPONDENT.
› A numeric code like 1 for male and 2 for female needs a label
› Labels help in getting the output with actual names than codes.
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 16

SCALES OF MEASUREMENT
•Nominal Scale - groups or classes
Gender
•Ordinal Scale - order matters
Ranks (top ten videos)
•Interval Scale - difference or distance matters – has
arbitrary zero value.
Temperatures (0F, 0C), Likert Scale
•Ratio Scale - Ratio matters – has a natural zero value.
Salaries
PROF DR AB RAJAR //DRABRAJAR@GMAIL.COM 17

SOME BASIC ANALYSIS OF SPSS
Frequencies:
This analysis produces frequency tables showing
frequency counts and percentages of the values of
individual variables.
Descriptive:
This analysis shows the maximum, minimum,
mean, and standard deviation of the variables
Linear regression analysis:
Linear Regression estimates the coefficients of
the linear equation
