Preface

SPSS, standing for Statistical Package for the Social Sciences , is a powerful,

user-friendly software package for the manipulation and statistical analysis

of data. The package is particularly useful for students and researchers in

psychology, sociology, psychiatry, and other behavioral sciences, contain-

ing as it does an extensive range of both univariate and multivariate

procedures much used in these disciplines. Our aim in this handbook is

to give brief and straightforward descriptions of how to conduct a range

of statistical analyses using the latest version of SPSS, SPSS 11. Each chapter

deals with a different type of analytical procedure applied to one or more

data sets primarily (although not exclusively) from the social and behav-

ioral areas. Although we concentrate largely on how to use SPSS to get

results and on how to correctly interpret these results, the basic theoretical

background of many of the techniques used is also described in separate

boxes. When more advanced procedures are used, readers are referred

to other sources for details. Many of the boxes contain a few mathematical

formulae, but by separating this material from the body of the text, we

hope that even readers who have limited mathematical background will

still be able to undertake appropriate analyses of their data.

The text is not intended in any way to be an introduction to statistics

and, indeed, we assume that most readers will have attended at least one

statistics course and will be relatively familiar with concepts such as linear

regression , correlation , signiﬁcance tests, and simple analysis of variance .

Our hope is that researchers and students with such a background will

ﬁnd this book a relatively self-contained means of using SPSS to analyze

their data correctly.

Each chapter ends with a number of exercises, some relating to the

data sets introduced in the chapter and others introducing further data

sets. Working through these exercises will develop both SPSS and statistical

skills. Answers to most of the exercises in the text are provided at

http://www.iop.kcl.ac.uk/iop/departments/BioComp/SPSSBook.shtml.

The majority of data sets used in the book can be found at the same site.

We are grateful to Ms. Harriet Meteyard for her usual excellent word

processing and overall support during the writing of this book.
