Summary

Descriptive statistics are used to summarise and describe data. Students learn how to use SPSS to calculate measures like mean, median, mode, standard deviation, and variance. They also learn to create visual representations of data.

Descriptive Statistics

Descriptive statistics summarise data. Students learn how to calculate mean, median, mode, standard deviation, variance, range, and more. They also learn to create frequency distributions and visualise data with histograms and stem-and-leaf plots.

One Way ANOVA

One-way ANOVA tests differences between the means of three or more independent groups. Students learn how to conduct this test using SPSS to compare means across different groups. They also learn to interpret the results and draw conclusions.

Non-Parametric Tests

Non-parametric tests do not assume data follows a specific distribution. Students learn how to use the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Mann-Whitney U test to compare distributions and ranks. They also learn to interpret test results.

Correlation and Regression

Correlation measures the strength and direction of a relationship between two variables. Students learn how to conduct correlation and regression analysis using SPSS. They also learn to interpret the results and understand the relationship between variables.
