PREFACE
The IBM SPSS software package is one of the most widely used statistical applications
in academia, business, and government. This book, Performing Data Analysis Using IBM
SPSS, provides readers with both a gentle introduction to basic statistical computation
with the IBM SPSS software package and a portal to the more comprehensive and
statistically robust multivariate procedures. This book was written to be a stand-alone
resource as well as a supplementary text for both undergraduate introductory and more
advanced graduate-level statistics courses.
For most of the chapters, we provide a consistent structure that includes the follow-
ing:
• Overview: This is a brief conceptual introduction that furnishes a set of rele-
vant details for each statistical procedure being covered, including a few useful
references that supply additional background information.
• Numerical Example: This includes a description of the research problem or ques-
tion, the name of the data file, a description of the variables and how they are
coded, and (often) a screenshot of the IBM SPSS Data View.
• Analysis Strategy: When the analysis is performed in stages, or when alternative
data processing strategies are available, we include a description of how we have
structured our data analysis and explain the rationale for why we have performed
the analyses in the way presented in the chapter.
• Analysis Setup: This includes how to configure each dialog window with screen-
shots and is accompanied (within reason) with explanations for why we chose the
particular options we utilized.
• Analysis Output: This elucidates the major aspects of the statistical output with
pertinent screenshots and discussion.
Because of the multiple audience we are attempting to reach with this book, the com-
plexity of the procedures covered varies substantially across the chapters. For example,
chapters that cover IBM SPSS basics of data entry and file manipulation, descriptive
statistical procedures, correlation, simple linear regression, multiple regression, one-way
chi-square, t tests, and one and two-way analysis of variance designs are all appro-
priate topics for first- or second-level statistics and data analysis courses. The remain-
ing chapters, data transformations, assumption violation assessment, reliability analysis,
logistic regression, multivariate analysis of variance, survival analysis, multidimensional
scaling, cluster analysis, multilevel modeling, exploratory and confirmatory factor anal-
ysis, and structural equation modeling, are all important topics that may be suitable for
more advanced statistics courses.
There are 66 chapters in this book. They are organized into 19 sections or “Parts.”
Different authors might organize the chapters in somewhat different ways and present
them in a somewhat different order, as there is no fully agreed upon organizational
structure for this material. However, except for the chapters presented in the early parts
that show readers how to work with IBM SPSS data files, most of the data analysis
chapters can be used as a resource on their own, allowing users to work with whatever
analysis procedures meet their needs; the order in which users would choose to work with
