Getting started with SPSS

3 Using the Menu

Activity 2

0h 20m

This activity follows the previous one by opening with a window showing the Trends 14 data file. You are encouraged to explore the menus by using the SPSS software. Each item has been annotated to provide you with a brief overview of the menus. Click on each of the menus to discover what options are available to you. We have created a feature that allows you to hide the parts of the menus you are not likely to need in order to use SPSS. We hope this helps you feel less anxious about how much you need to know about the software.
