Using SPSS Syntax: A Beginner's Guide

by Jacqueline Collier

SPSS syntax is the command language used by SPSS to carry out all of its commands and functions. Jacqueline Collier′s book is primarily aimed at people who have never used the syntax option in SPSS, or have just started to use it. This is an introductory text designed to show readers how to try using syntax themselves and to then support them through its use. It is ideal for those who are experienced in using SPSS through the usual button menu-driven graphical interface (GIF), but who are novices regarding syntax.
