Preface IBM SPSS Statistics IBM SPSS Statistics is a comprehensive system for analyzing data. SPSS Statistics can take data from almost any type of file and use them to generate tabulated reports, charts and plots of distributions and trends, descriptive statistics, and complex statistical analyses. This manual, the IBM SPSS Statistics 19 Core System User’s Guide, documents the graphical user interface of SPSS Statistics. Examples using the statistical procedures found in add-on options are provided in the Help system, installed with the software. In addition, beneath the menus and dialog boxes, SPSS Statistics uses a command language. Some extended features of the system can be accessed only via command syntax. (Those features are not available in the Student Version.) Detailed command syntax reference information is available in two forms: integrated into the overall Help system and as a separate document in PDF form in the Command Syntax Reference, also available from the Help menu. IBM SPSS Statistics Options The following options are available as add-on enhancements to the full (not Student Version) IBM SPSS Statistics Core system: Statistics Base gives you a wide range of statistical procedures for basic analyses and reports, including counts, crosstabs and descriptive statistics, OLAP Cubes and codebook reports. It also provides a wide variety of dimension reduction, classification and segmentation techniques such as factor analysis, cluster analysis, nearest neighbor analysis and discriminant function analysis. Additionally, SPSS Statistics Base offers a broad range of algorithms for comparing means and predictive techniques such as t-test, analysis of variance, linear regression and ordinal regression. Advanced Statistics focuses on techniques often used in sophisticated experimental and biomedical research. It includes procedures for general linear models (GLM), linear mixed models, variance components analysis, loglinear analysis, ordinal regression, actuarial life tables, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and basic and extended Cox regression. Bootstrapping is a method for deriving robust estimates of standard errors and confidence intervals for estimates such as the mean, median, proportion, odds ratio, correlation coefficient or regression coefficient. Categories performs optimal scaling procedures, including correspondence analysis. Complex Samples allows survey, market, health, and public opinion researchers, as well as social scientists who use sample survey methodology, to incorporate their complex sample designs into data analysis.

Conjoint provides a realistic way to measure how individual product attributes affect consumer and citizen preferences. With Conjoint, you can easily measure the trade-off effect of each product attribute in the context of a set of product attributes—as consumers do when making purchasing decisions. Custom Tables creates a variety of presentation-quality tabular reports, including complex stub-and-banner tables and displays of multiple response data. Data Preparation provides a quick visual snapshot of your data. It provides the ability to apply validation rules that identify invalid data values. You can create rules that flag out-of-range values, missing values, or blank values. You can also save variables that record individual rule violations and the total number of rule violations per case. A limited set of predefined rules that you can copy or modify is provided. Decision Trees creates a tree-based classification model. It classifies cases into groups or predicts values of a dependent (target) variable based on values of independent (predictor) variables. The procedure provides validation tools for exploratory and confirmatory classification analysis. Direct Marketing allows organizations to ensure their marketing programs are as effective as possible, through techniques specifically designed for direct marketing. Exact Tests calculates exact p values for statistical tests when small or very unevenly distributed samples could make the usual tests inaccurate. This option is available only on Windows operating systems. Forecasting performs comprehensive forecasting and time series analyses with multiple curve-fitting models, smoothing models, and methods for estimating autoregressive functions. Missing Values describes patterns of missing data, estimates means and other statistics, and imputes values for missing observations. Neural Networks can be used to make business decisions by forecasting demand for a product as a function of price and other variables, or by categorizing customers based on buying habits and demographic characteristics. Neural networks are non-linear data modeling tools. They can be used to model complex relationships between inputs and outputs or to find patterns in data. Regression provides techniques for analyzing data that do not fit traditional linear statistical models. It includes procedures for probit analysis, logistic regression, weight estimation, two-stage least-squares regression, and general nonlinear regression. Amos (analysis of moment structures) uses structural equation modeling to confirm and explain conceptual models that involve attitudes, perceptions, and other factors that drive behavior.
