  2. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 TOPICS COVERED SO FAR ▪

    Import a dataset in SPSS ▪ Set variable parameters (Name, Type, Label, Measure) ▪ Recoding variables
  3. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 LAUNCH SPSS ▪ Go to

    Canvas ◦ Assignments > SPSS Lab 4 - Descriptive statistics - Univariate analysis ◦ Download the Week-4.sav file ▪ Open the file on SPSS ◦ Launch SPP ▪ File > Open > Data… ▪ Find and open the Week-4.sav file
  4. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 CENTRALITY AND DISPERSION 8 How

    to calculate the main central tendency and dispersion measures in SPSS. Centrality: 1. Mean (average) 2. Median 3. Mode Dispersion: 1. Standard deviation 2. Min and max 3. Range (Max - Min)
  5. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 ∑ [tempo] 1239 number of

    songs in the dataset. Population, or n sum of all values in the tempo colum CALCULATING CENTRALITY AND DISPERSION IN SPSS Numeric variables
  6. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 the tempo of the 602nd

    song (ordered from the slowest to the fastest) Why 602? CENTRALITY AND DISPERSION 601 songs median (song n.602) 601 songs Numeric variables fastest slowest
  7. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 Tempo of the fastest and

    of the slowest songs CALCULATING CENTRALITY AND DISPERSION IN SPSS Numeric variables
  8. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 122 147 97 72 47

    172 197 QUESTION: WHAT % OF SONGS HAVE TEMPO > 147 BPM?
  9. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 122 147 97 72 47

    172 197 QUESTION: WHAT % OF SONGS HAVE TEMPO > 147 BPM?
  10. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 WHAT ABOUT STRING (TEXT) VARIABLES?

    Try to calculate centrality and dispersion of the variable “Genre”. Centrality: 1. Mean (average) 2. Median 3. Mode Dispersion: 1. Standard deviation 2. Min and max 3. Range (Max - Min)
  11. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 PERCENT Vs VALID PERCENT Percent:

    % calculated on the entire dataset population (n). In this case, 1,239 Valid Percent: % calculated on the entire dataset population (n) minus missing values. In this case, 1,239 - 34 = 1,205
  12. Photo: Startup Weekend Hackathon. Nov.2014 MULTIPLE ANALYSES AT ONCE Analyzing

    more than one variable at once it might be useful to conduct comparative analysis. Especially if the variables share the same scale and measurement unit. To analyze more than one variables at once, simply add more variables to the “Variable” box in the Frequencies window. This week’s exercise: Analyze loudness and energy. Take a screenshot of the Frequency table and upload it on Canvas.
