## Logistic Regression in SPSS

This post outlines the steps for performing a logistic regression in SPSS. The data come from the 2016 American National Election Survey. Code for preparing the data can be found on our github page, and the cleaned data can be downloaded here. The steps that will be covered are the following: Check variable codings and distributions Graphically review bivariate associations Fit the logit model in SPSS Interpret results in terms of odds ratios Interpret results in terms of predicted probabilities The variables used will be:

## Two-Way ANOVA using SPSS

This tutorial is going to take the theory learned in our Two-Way ANOVA tutorial and walk through how to apply it using SPSS. We will use the Moore dataset which can be downloaded using this link. The data is from an experimental study which consists of subjects in a “social-psychological experiment who were faced with manipulated disagreement from a partner of either of low or high status. The subjects could either conform to the partner’s judgment or stick with their own judgment.

## Estimating HLM Models Using SPSS Menus: Part 1

Note: For a fuller treatment, download our series of lectures Hierarchical Linear Models. The Empty Model As a first step, R&B begin with an empty model containing no covariates. $$$Y_{ij} = \beta_{0j} + e_{ij}\tag{1}$$$ Each school’s intercept, $$\beta_{0j}$$, is then set equal to a grand mean, $$\gamma_{00}$$, and a random error $$u_{0j}$$. $$$\beta_{0j} = \gamma_{00} + u_{0j}\tag{2}$$$ Substituting (2) into (1) produces $$$Y_{ij} = \gamma_{00} + u_{0j} + e_{ij}\tag{3}$$$

## Estimating HLM Models Using SPSS Menus: Part 2

Note: For a fuller treatment, download our series of lectures Hierarchical Linear Models. Means-as-Outcomes Model After estimating the empty model, R&B develop a Means-as-Outcomes model in which a school-level variable, meanses, is added to the model for the intercept. This variable reflects the average student SES level in each school. Recall Equation (1): $$$Y_{ij} = \beta_{0j} + e_{ij}\tag{1}$$$ The intercept can be modelled as a grand mean $$\gamma_{00}$$, plus the effect of the average SES score $$\gamma_{01}$$, plus a random error $$u_{0j}$$.

## Estimating HLM Models Using SPSS Menus: Part 3

Note: For a fuller treatment, download our series of lectures Hierarchical Linear Models. Random Coefficient Model Next, R&B present a model in which student-level SES is included instead of average SES, and they treat the slope of student SES as random. One complication is that R&B present results after group-mean centering student SES. Group-mean centering means that the average SES for each student’s school is subtracted from each student’s individual SES.

## Conducting One-Way ANOVA in SPSS

Conducting ANOVA in SPSS We want to study the effectiveness of different treatments on anxiety. We collect a sample of 75 subjects in the following categories: No treatment ($$n_1$$ = 27). Biofeedback ($$n_2$$ = 24). Cognitive-behavioral Treatment ($$n_3$$ = 24). The dependent variable is anxiety levels. In this analysis, we will include both planned contrasts and post hoc comparisons. Steps to doing an ANOVA The steps to doing an ANOVA in SPSS are as follows:
t-Tests in SPSS SPSS allows you to conduct one-sample, independent samples, and paired samples $$t$$-tests. This page demonstrates how to perform each using SPSS. The data used in this tutorial can be downloaded from here. The one-sample and independent samples examples will use the iq_long.sav data, and the paired samples example will use iq_wide.sav. One Sample $$t$$-Test Say we have data from 200 subjects who have taken an IQ test. We know in the general population the mean IQ is 100.
