Week 4 : SPSS and Qualitative analysis

The survey conducted in week 3 will be conducted in this week too. The result that we obtain, we have to record the data into a software, SPSS. The direction is to get accurate data after we read the data considering its facts and its rationale in answering.

To use SPSS, a much complex software to get a complete reading of out survey's result  we need to open SPSS and start naming the variable using Variable View. The main variable to get a complete table of correct figures should be typed in. It includes name,type width,decimal,label and value.

Next, a data entry for the printed questionnaire  using Data View is much needed. In the data view, the data need to be merged and imported from online questionnaire spreadsheet  to make sure that the variable is the same. After the data has been imported we will have to run the analyse to turn it into a descriptive data in the form of frequencies. The output of the survey will be displayed in SPSS Viewer. The complete data enables us to read and understand the margins and the specification of the general survey conducted. The table and graph can be copied from SPSS Viewer to OpenOffice Writer for reporting. The reporting should be based on the frequency table that have been processed on SPSS. The data should not include the data from surveymonkey as it is just a pilot test.
