    Use of SPSS For Two-Way Tests

    Uploaded by

    This document provides instructions for conducting a two-way chi-square analysis in SPSS. It describes sample data on the number of children obtaining different grade levels based on their seating position. The basic sequence is to enter the row and column variables, weight the cases by frequency, select descriptive statistics/crosstabs from the analyze menu, choose the row and column variables and select chi-square statistics with observed and expected counts and asymptotic tests. Running the analysis will produce an output table to check against a provided example and hand calculations.

    Basic Sequence
    Stage 1
    The basic sequence for running two-way analyses is as follows:
    1) In terms of how data are entered, we enter the data as we did for the one-way
    analysis, except of course, we now have two variables (seating position and grade)
    instead of one, as shown below. Following the example below, open SPSS and
    create a datafile.

    Stages 2 and 3
    Once you have done this, go to the Data menu, and select Weight cases. In the
    dialogue box that appears, select Weight cases by and choose the third column,
    Frequency as the weighting variable, by clicking on it and moving it using the arrow
    button (see below). Click OK to enact this.

    Go to the Analyze menu, and choose Descriptive Statistics/Crosstabs.

    Stages 4, 5 and 6
    In the dialogue box that appears, select your row and column variables by clicking on
    each in turn to highlight it, and then using the horizontal arrow buttons to move them
    into the correct box (NB it doesnt matter which variable you assign to row and which
    to column, other than in terms of which way round these are in the table that is
    generated):

    Click on the Statistics button, and choose Chi-square.


    Under Cells choose Observed and Expected counts.
    Under Exact, make sure that asymptotic only is selected.

    NB be sure to click on Continue rather than simply closing these dialogue

    boxes, otherwise your settings will be ignored.

    Click on OK to run the analysis.


    Task 10
    Run the analysis as described above. Compare your output against the one provided
    here. Then check that the values you obtain are as you worked out before, when
    doing the calculation by hand.
