Week 4 : Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS )

On this week task, we were needed to record or analyze the data from the survey that we had done. To analyze the data, we're needed to download a software called SPSS. It's a software that can analyze or record the data from the survey easily and faster.

Below are the ways to collect data from the SPSS
1. Open SPSS and start naming the variable using Variable View ..
      Example :
  •          Name: Form ID ; type: Numeric:; width : 8; decimals: 0; Label: Form Identification; values: none
  •           Name: Gender; type: numeric; width: 8; decimals: 0; Label Value (1, Male.....)
2. Data Entry (for printed questionnaire) using Data View
3. In data view, Data -> Merge / import data from Online Questionnaire spreadsheet (make sure that   the variable is the same)
4. Run the analyze ->descriptive data: Frequencies
5. Output will be displayed in SPSS Viewer
6. The table and graph can be copied from SPSS Viewer to OpenOffice Writer for reporting.
