How to calculate Mean, Median, Standard deviation, Chi-Square & charts | SPSS Part-2 | Lecture 70

Descriptive Statistics on SPSS:
In this third video about SPSS for Beginners, Dr. Naveed shows you three ways to approach descriptive statistics in SPSS. If you want quick and basic descriptive statistics, use the Descriptive command to get the most commonly used statistics. The Frequencies command gives you a wide range of possibilities with the most flexibility to choose exactly what output you want. When you want maximum output with lots of graphs – or if you want to split the descriptive statistics by a categorical variable (like gender), then use the Explore command.

The video answers the question of what is descriptive statistics by explaining the concept of Range, Mean, Median, Mode, variance, standard deviation and chi-square using a practical example.

Use Excel to quickly calculate the Mean, Median, Mode, Standard Error, Standard Deviation, Variance, Kurtosis, Skewness, Range, Minimum, and Maximum. This video shows you how to calculate Descriptive Statistics using the Data Analysis Tool in Excel.
