SPSS Training in Kathmandu Nepal

SPSS Training in Kathmandu Nepal

Open Eyes IT Solution is going to start new session on SPSS Training in Kathmandu Nepal.

We start with an overview of both SPSS and also the data analysis process. We discuss the differences between surveys and experiments and also have a look at how you navigate round SPSS. We look as the difference window types that you will work with and also the different file types that SPSS uses.

The key topics trained are:

The Data Analysis Process

Surveys vs Experiments

SPSS Window Types: Data, Output, Syntax

SPSS File Types: Data, Output

Setting up your test and data correctly are key in statistical analysis. This section focuses on ensuring that you are setting up your test correcting. From there we look at labelling data and variables in SPSS. Finally we have a quick look at how you can import your data from Excel, as that is usually where the raw data is held.

The key topics trained include:

The “case” concept

Choosing the right Measure

Creating Variables and choosing the right type

Variable and Value Labels

Calculating new variables

Variable Recode

Importing data from other programs (i.e. Excel)

Once you have your data set up and imported into SPSS the next step is to understand the types of tests that SPSS can carry out and the types of output that it can produce. We look at simple outputs in this section like frequency tables, charge and computing simple statistics like mean and standard deviation.

The key concepts trained in this section are:

Frequency Tables

Descriptive Statistics

Crosstabulations

Charts: Frequency, Cluster, Stacked, Value Bar Charts

Simple Statistics on Groups: Computing Mean, Standard Deviation

SPSS is very good for communicating the results of the tests that you have been running. It allows you to customise your charts and tables so that you can present them clearly. It also allows you to output your results to other software applications. We look at all of these possibilities during this section of the course.

The key concepts trained include:

Modifying Output Tables and Charts

Using Chart Templates

Using Table “Looks”

Including output in other applications (i.e. Word)

Managing your data is a very large subject. Having previously look at how to set up your data correctly we return to the subject to focus on data management. We look at how to work with the types of data that you may have (including missing values and dates and time) and also at selecting which data to use and aggregating / disaggregating data.

The key topics trained include:

Getting data from other sources

Dealing with missing values

Selecting Cases

Using Sets

The “Visual Bander”

Splitting files

Aggregated files

Dealing with multiple response questions

Data restructuring

Working with dates, times and durations

Merging files

This section covers the basics of statistics. Before doing a test it is critical that you understand what type of data you have. This determines the types of statistical test that will be appropriate to use, and so the types of relationships between your data that you will be able to test for. We also have a look at some very widely used statistical tests.
