Getting Started With SPSS Syntax

Are you still using menus to do all your analyses in SPSS? There's nothing wrong with using the menus in many situations--I use them all the time. But syntax has a number of advantages--efficiency, communiciation, more options, and especially documentation.

Luckily SPSS has a number of built-in features and resources that will help you get started using SPSS syntax. In this webinar, we'll go through some of them, and show you some examples for using syntax to do data manipulation and analyses.

The video covers:

  1. What Syntax is and Why you MUST use it
  2. The Command Syntax Reference
  3. A Simple way to Get Syntax into Output
  4. Pasting Code from the Menus
  5. Examples:
    Opening and Saving Data Files
    Creating New Variables: Recode, Compute, Case Summaries
    Variable Labels, Value Labels, and Missing Data
    Analysis: Frequencies, Correlations, and Crosstabs
