Next Steps With SPSS

Using plain language and sample programs, Einspruch, a researcher in the private sector, introduces readers to intermediate and advanced SPSS skills. The book is organized so that it builds increasingly advanced syntax coding skills, starting with the handling of complex data files and then moving to coverage of looping and macro skills. The book then switches to more Windows-oriented skills suitable for working with SPSS output and for running SPSS in an alternative mode, as in a production facility. The book returns to coding skills by introducing advanced topics of the scripting facility and the matrix command language. Chapter exercises and glossaries are included.
