SPSS – how to use it
Variable view – can have nominal or ordinal variables or scale.
Doesn’t like spaces between the names of data sets
It is shown in different columns in data view
In data view is where you implement the data in accordance to the meanings of the
data set in variable view
Can just add in data by hand in the columns (but can be really time consuming) so
instead you can:
o Copy and paste data from excel into SPSS – paste with variable names or just
paste the numerical values.
o Open an excel file in SPSS – file > open > data > documents > open the file
you wish to use > press ok.
Double check SPSS has opened and interpreted all the variables correctly
