SPSS Reporting
SPSS Output items, typically tables and charts, are easily copy-pasted into
other programs. For instance, many SPSS users use a word processor such as
MS Word, OpenOffice or Google Docs for reporting. Tables are usually
copied in rich text format, which means they'll retain their styling such as
fonts and borders. The screenshot below illustrates the result.
SPSS Syntax Editor Window
The output table we showed was created by running Descriptive Statistics
from SPSS' menu. Now, SPSS has a second option for running this (or any
other) command: we can open a third window, known as the syntax editor
window. Here we can type and run SPSS code known as SPSS syntax. For
instance, running descriptives income_2010. has the exact same result as
running this command from SPSS' menu like we did earlier Besides typing
commands into the Syntax Editor window, most of them can also be pasted
into it by clicking through SPSS' menu options. Like so, SPSS users
unfamiliar with syntax can still use it. But why use syntax if SPSS has such a
nice menu? The basic point is that syntax can be saved, corrected, rerun and
shared between projects or users. Your syntax makes your SPSS work
replicable. If anybody raises any doubts regarding your outcomes, you can
show exactly what you did and -if needed-correct and rerun it in seconds. For
non SPSS users, the look and feel of SPSS' Syntax Editor window probably
come closest to Notepad: a single window basically just containing plain text .
Editing Data
In real world research, raw data usually need some editing before they can be
properly analysed. Typical examples are creating means or sums as new
variables, restructuring data or detecting and removing unlikely observations.
SPSS performs such tasks -and more complex ones with amazing efficiency.
For getting things done fast, SPSS contains many numeric functions, string
functions, date functions and other handy routines.
Inferential Statistics
SPSS contains all basic statistical tests and multivariate analyses such as
. t-tests;
. chi-square tests
. ANOVA
. correlations and other association measures;
. regression
. nonparametric tests
. factor analysis
. cluster analysis
Some analyses are available only after purchasing additional SPSS options on
top of the main program. An overview of all commands and the options to
which they belong is presented in Overview All SPSS Commands
SPSS software is used for editing and analyzing all sorts of data
available from scientific research, clinical studies, customer database,
Google Analytics, etc. SPSS can open all file formats that are
commonly used for structured data such as spreadsheets from MS
Excel, plain text files, relational database, stata, SAS, etc. SPSS
Statistics can read and write data from ASCII text files, other statistics
packages, spreadsheets, and databases.

In this table the first column lists the labels we assigned to the four levels
of this variable i.e. 1:below 18 and 2: 25 to 30. The Frequency column
displays the frequency of each score (in this case, category). This shows
that out of the 30 people, 28 people are between 18 to 24 years old, while
the rest 2 people are between 25 to 30 years old. These frequencies are
converted to percentages in the Percent column i.e. 84.8% for 1st category ,
6.1% for 2nd category. Valid Percent column shows values 93.3% for 1st
category and 6.7% for 2nd category .
