Description
SPSS is a software package used for statistical analysis used to perform data manipulation, statistical tests, and generate reports. Data can be imported from various sources such as Excel, CSV files, and databases. SPSS offers a wide range of statistical procedures for analyzing data. This includes descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, variance, etc.), correlation analysis, regression analysis, t-tests, ANOVA, factor analysis, and more. SPSS allows users to transform and recode variables easily. This can include creating new variables, transforming existing variables, or generating summary statistics. Apart from basic statistical tests, SPSS supports more advanced analytics such as cluster analysis, decision trees, and logistic regression. For reporting, SPSS can generate customizable reports based on your analyses which include tables, charts, and statistical summaries.
