Features: In recent years, the application scope of SPSS statistical group exercises in China has been expanding at an astonishing speed, and more and more people are learning and using SPSS. However, the author discovered while learning, using, and teaching SPSS to students that there are almost no books suitable for undergraduate textbooks and beginners to introduce SPSS. Therefore, the author compiled this textbook based on their own experience and the needs of beginners. This textbook is written for beginners, and users who use this textbook as a guide manual can learn and use it simultaneously. It is suitable for SPSS courses for liberal arts students and also for users without a statistics background or with a relatively weak foundation in statistics. This book is written for beginners and can be used as a user guide manual and textbook. Based on SPSS version 11.0, this book systematically introduces the use of the software. It selects the most commonly used functions in SPSS with emphasis, provides detailed explanations of statistical analysis processes and statistical output results, and includes examples. This book highlights the feature of being "concise," making it easy to understand, even for those without a background in mathematics or statistics. The appendix of this book includes two parts: The first part, the author introduces a self-developed error-checking program for data entry using SPSS software, which greatly improves the quality of data entry and effectively eliminates input errors. The second part considers that SPSS programs do not yet have a Chinese version, and it adds a bilingual index of statistical terminology and phrases to facilitate readers. Target Audience: Statistical professionals, teachers, and students in statistics at universities and colleges.
