Presenting Data with IBM SPSS Custom (V20) – 0g170pl
Course #: 0g170pl
Duration: 2 Days
Presenting Data with IBM SPSS Custom Tables is a two day instructor-led classroom course that teaches customers, who are familiar with IBM SPSS Statistics, how to create and edit tables using the IBM SPSS Custom Tables Module. Specifically students will learn how to create several tables by performing crosstabulations, stacking, layers and nesting of variables within tables. They will also learn how to create tables for variables with shared categories as well as work with multiple response sets and use the statistical techniques available within the module. Finally they will learn how to edit tables using techniques both within and outside of the IBM SPSS Custom Tables Module.
Objectives
