Spss Base 12.0 User's Guide

SPSS 12.0 is a comprehensive system for analyzing data. SPSS 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 SPSS Base 12.0 User's Guide, documents the graphical user interface of SPSS for Windows. Complete information about using interactive graphics can be found in SPSS Interactive Graphics 10.0, which is compatible with release 12.0 of SPSS. Examples using the statistical procedures found in SPSS Base 12.0 are provided in the Help system, installed with the software. Algorithms used in the statistical procedures are available on the product CD-ROM. In addition, beneath the menus and dialog boxes, SPSS 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.) Complete command syntax is documented in the SPSS 12.0 Command Syntax Reference, provided on the product CD-ROM.SPSS Inc.
