Everitt, Brian S. II. dc222003058474 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC Press LLCP refaceSPSS, standing for Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, is a powerful,user-friendly software package for the manipulation and Statistical analysisof data. The package is particularly useful for students and researchers inpsychology, sociology, psychiatry, and other behavioral sciences, contain-ing as it does an extensive range of both univariate and multivariateprocedures much used in these disciplines.

4 Our aim in this Handbook isto give brief and straightforward descriptions of how to conduct a rangeof Statistical Analyses using the latest version of spss , spss 11. Each chapterdeals with a different type of analytical procedure applied to one or moredata sets primarily (although not exclusively) from the social and behav-ioral areas. Although we concentrate largely on how to use spss to getresults and on how to correctly interpret these results, the basic theoreticalbackground of many of the techniques used is also described in separateboxes. When more advanced procedures are used, readers are referredto other sources for details.

5 Many of the boxes contain a few mathematicalformulae, but by separating this material from the body of the text, wehope that even readers who have limited mathematical background willstill be able to undertake appropriate Analyses of their text is not intended in any way to be an introduction to statisticsand, indeed, we assume that most readers will have attended at least onestatistics course and will be relatively familiar with concepts such as linearregression,correlation,significanc e tests,and simple analysis of hope is that researchers and students with such a background willfind this book a relatively self-contained means of using spss to analyzetheir data correctly.

6 Each chapter ends with a number of exercises, some relating to thedata sets introduced in the chapter and others introducing further datasets. Working through these exercises will develop both spss and statisticalskills. Answers to most of the exercises in the text are provided at 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC Press majority of data sets used in the book can be found at the same are grateful to Ms. Harriet Meteyard for her usual excellent wordprocessing and overall support during the writing of this Landau and Brian EverittLondon, July 2003 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC Press LLCD istributorsThe distributor for spss in the United Kingdom isSPSS Floor St.
