IN DETAIL
SPSS Statistics is a software package used for logical batched and
non-batched statistical analysis. Analytical tools such as SPSS can
readily provide even a novice user with an overwhelming amount of
information and a broad range of options for analyzing patterns in the
data.
The journey starts with installing and configuring SPSS Statistics for
first use and exploring the data to understand its potential (as well
as its limitations). Use the right statistical analysis technique such
as regression, classification and more, and analyze your data in the
best possible manner. Work with graphs and charts to visualize your
findings. With this information in hand, the discovery of patterns
within the data can be undertaken. Finally, the high level objective
of developing predictive models that can be applied to other
situations will be addressed.
By the end of this book, you will have a firm understanding of the
various statistical analysis techniques offered by SPSS Statistics,
and be able to master its use for data analysis with ease.
