Complex Samples Frequencies

The Complex Samples Frequencies procedure produces frequency tables for selected variables and displays univariate statistics. Optionally, you can request statistics by subgroups, defined by one or more categorical variables.

Using Complex Samples Frequencies to Analyze Nutritional Supplement Usage

A researcher wants to study the use of nutritional supplements among U.S. citizens, using the results of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) and a previously created analysis plan. For more information, see the topic Using the Complex Samples Analysis Preparation Wizard to Ready NHIS Public Data in Chapter 14 on p. 140.

A subset of the 2000 survey is collected in nhis2000_subset.sav. The analysis plan is stored in nhis2000_subset.csaplan. For more information, see the topic Sample Files in Appendix A in IBM SPSS Complex Samples 19. Use Complex Samples Frequencies to produce statistics for nutritional supplement usage.
