If you're looking for a statistics program capable of doing everything you need for your business or research, IBM SPSS Statistics may be just what you need. It has quality prediction models and analysis methods.


This tool includes a wide array of features for easily accessing and managing large amounts of data. It can analyze your data and create graphs and charts to display it quite easily. All of your analyses will be run using dialog boxes from an interface that doesn't present any problems when dealing with large amounts of data and variables.

The data editor is another standout feature in IBM SPSS Statistics. It incorporates a comprehensive menu dedicated to modifying files, risk analyses, client identification, cost/benefit analyses, and trend analyses for better planning your organization's strategy and future manufacturing processes.


The results of the data that you use with this tool are displayed in a viewer together with graphs and charts that you can copy and paste into other programs, or export in PDF or DOC format to print or save for future use.


The IBM SPSS software platform offers advanced statistical analysis, a vast library of machine learning algorithms, text analysis, open-source extensibility, integration with big data and seamless deployment into applications.


Within the SPSS software family of products, IBM SPSS Statistics supports a top-down, hypothesis testing approach to your data, while IBM SPSS Modeler exposes patterns and models hidden in data through a bottom-up, hypothesis generation approach.


IBM SPSS Statistics is a powerful statistical software platform. It offers a user-friendly interface and a robust set of features that lets your organization quickly extract actionable insights from your data. Advanced statistical procedures help ensure high accuracy and quality decision making. All facets of the analytics lifecycle are included, from data preparation and management to analysis and reporting.


SPSS is a trialware that you can use to record and then analyze data. While the original developers of the statistical tool are SPSS Inc., IBM acquired the software, which is now called IBM SPSS Statistics. The SPSS software is highly customizable to let you enter the exact data that you need, like variables and numbers.






SPSS has a user interface that looks like Microsoft Excel as the UI is set up as a spreadsheet. MatLab, Minitab, Power Bi, Stata, MySQL, and Tableau are data management alternatives to SPSS. All programs are suitable for professional use.


SPSS has a one-time package and subscription plans, aside from the free trial. An academic version for students and faculty members is available too. The data manager supports multiple languages like Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Korean, Spanish, etc.


SPSS is a popular statistics program because of its data management capabilities and user-friendly interface. The UI is both praised and critiqued for its simplicity. While the user interface looks like Excel, the user experience is different.


SPSS is used for data analysis by researchers in a myriad of fields. You perform predictive analytics to predict future outcomes and set up your user interface in a manner that supports your research. Since the interface can be customized, you can collect and analyze your data with ease.


A yellow pop-up appears when you hover above the variable cells to let you know the properties, like name, type, and measurement. The Variable View lets you change the names and properties of the variables in your data analysis. This gives you the variables on the vertical axis and the properties on the horizontal.


While the default type is set to Numeric, a list of alternative data types will appear like Comma, Dot, Date, Dollar, and more. Another important property is the measure section, which lets you determine the scale of the measurement, like Scale, Ordinal, and Nominal. The Scale system of measurement in SPSS covers the interval and ratio measures that are found in standard scales of measurement.


The width property is meant to determine how wide a string variable is and the decimal section specifies the number of decimal spaces. The columns segment lets you adjust the size of the columns that your data will appear. The UI lets you drag and drop the sections to make the columns either more wide or narrow.


Both views are set up as spreadsheets to let you easily survey data analyses. Users find that the simple interface makes using SPSS easy. The Data View and Variable View automatically sync together when you make changes in either tab. Therefore, the adjustments that you make in the Data View spreadsheet will populate into the Variable View sheet.


SPSS is a software for data management that is used in both the academic and professional markets. The Data View is the window that lets you input your data values, while the Variable View is the sheet that lets you define your variable properties. SPSS lets you personalize your already easy user experience with variable labels and property types.


The Data Editor window is the default window and opens when SPSS starts. This window displays the content of any open data files and provides drop-down menus that allow you to modify and analyze data. The data are displayed in a spreadsheet format where columns represent variables and rows represent cases. The spreadsheet format includes two tabs at the bottom labeled Data View and Variable View. The Data View tab displays the open data set: variables appear in columns, and cases appear in rows. The Variable View tab displays information about variables in the open data (but not the data themselves), such as variable names, types, and labels, etc. The tab that is currently displayed will be yellow in color.


When you perform any command in SPSS, the Output Viewer window opens automatically and displays a log of the actions taken and the associated output. Primarily, the Output Viewer is where the results of statistical analysis are shown, but any command invoked through the drop-down menus or syntax will be printed to the Output Viewer. This includes opening, closing, or saving a data file. If an Output Viewer window is not open when a command is run, a new Output Viewer window will automatically be created.


SPSS syntax is a programming language unique to SPSS that can be used as an alternative to the drop-down menus for data manipulation and statistical analyses. The Syntax Editor window is where users can write, debug, and execute SPSS syntax. To open a new Syntax Editor window, click File > New > Syntax.


When working in SPSS, it's possible to have multiple windows of the same type open simultaneously. For example, you may open two different data files in SPSS, and therefore have two Data Editor windows open. Or, you may want to keep your exploratory data analysis and regression modeling syntax in separate syntax files, but you have both open in SPSS so that you can work on both tasks. When this happens, it's important to take note of which window is currently the active window for that window type.


Drop-down menus: Users who are new to SPSS typically learn the software by using drop-down menus. These are the menus that you see across the toolbar at the top of the screen--e.g., File, Edit, View, Data, etc. These menus provide the options you need for performing specific actions on your data. Clicking on any one of the menus will produce a list of menu items. You may then select a specific menu item from the list to perform specific actions. 


Syntax Commands: Advanced users can interact with SPSS by writing their own syntax. Syntax is a command-driven language that tells SPSS what actions to perform on the data. Using syntax commands (rather than drop-down menus) is preferable for several reasons:


Overall, syntax offers more flexibility, a clearer record, and greater ease in making changes and re-running commands. It does take some practice to learn to write the basic command language, but once you learn the language the benefits of working with data in this way will become very clear.


In this "quick start" guide, we will enter some data and then perform a transformation of the data. Transforming data is performed for a whole host of different reasons, but one of the most common is to apply a transformation to data that is not normally distributed so that the new, transformed data is normally distributed. Transforming a non-normal distribution into a normal distribution is performed in a number of different ways depending on the original distribution of data, but a common technique is to take the log of the data. In this example, we will show you how SPSS Statistics allows you to do this.
