Complex Samples Descriptives
The Complex Samples Descriptives procedure displays univariate summary statistics for several variables. Optionally, you can request statistics by subgroups, defined by one or more categorical variables.
Using Complex Samples Descriptives to Analyze Activity Levels
A researcher wants to study the activity levels of 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 Descriptives to produce univariate descriptive statistics for activity levels.
