A comprehensive range of statistical procedures

  • Carry out a wide range of descriptive procedures including crosstabulations, frequencies, compare means and correlation.
  • Predict numerical outcomes and identify groups using factor analysis, cluster analysis, linear regression, ordinal regression, discriminant analysis and Nearest Neighbor analysis.
  • Apply Monte Carlo simulation techniques to build better models and assess risk when inputs are uncertain.
  • Use SPSS Statistics Base with other modules, such as IBM SPSS Regression and IBM SPSS Advanced Statistics, to more accurately identify and analyze complex relationships.

Built-in techniques

  • Identify and eliminate duplicate cases and restructure your data files prior to analysis.
  • Set up data dictionary information (for example, value labels and variable types) and use it as a template to prepare all of your data for analysis faster.
  • Open multiple data sets within a single session to save time and condense steps.

Sophisticated reporting functionality

  • Create commonly used charts, such as scatterplot matrices, histograms and population pyramids, more easily.
  • Drag and drop variables and elements onto a chart creation canvas and preview the chart as it is being built.
  • Build a chart once, and then use those specifications to create hundreds more just like it.

Powerful visualization capabilities

  • Distribute and manipulate information for ad hoc decision-making using report online analytical processing (OLAP) technology.
  • Create high-end charts and graphs to aid analysis and reporting and identify new insights in your data.
  • Use pre-built map templates to generate a geographic or demographic analysis that can provide critical information for decision making.
  • Quickly change information and statistics in graphs for new levels of understanding, and convert a table to a graph with just a few mouse clicks.

Support for all types of data

  • Access, manage and analyze any kind of data set including survey data, corporate databases, data downloaded from the web and IBM Cognos Business Intelligence data.
  • Eliminate variability in data due to language-specific encoding and view, analyze and share data written in multiple languages using built-in Unicode support.
