Questions:
What group had the largest percentage of
Ph.Ds?
What are the ways in which you could
find the missing numbers?
Is it obvious why you would use
percentages to make comparisons among
two or more groups?

For example,
If we were looking at the relationship between gender
and income, gender would be the column variable and
income would be the row variable. Logically gender can
determine income. Income does not determine your
gender.
If we were looking at the relationship between ethnicity
and location of a persons home, ethnicity would be the
column variable.
However, if we were looking at the relationship between
gender and ethnicity, one does not influence the other.
Either variable could be the column variable.

Calculating Chi-Square
Formula is [0 - E]2
E
Where 0 is the observed value in a cell
E is the expected value in the same
cell we would see if there was no
association
First steps
Alternative hypothesis is: There is a relationship
between income level and education for
respondents in a survey of BA students.
Null hypothesis is: There is no relationship between
income level and education for respondents in a
survey of BA students

Recode
To run ratio or interval level variables into SPSS
you need to recode or change the variable into a
categorical or nominal or ordinal variable.
You first need to decide how you will set up
categories and assign a number to them.
For example if your ratio variables for Age are: 25,
37, 42, 50, and 64, you might decide on two
categories: 1 = under 50
2 = 50 and over
Recode Instructions
Go to Transform menu
Go to Recode
Select different variable
Type in new variable name
Click continue
Enter range of ratio numbers for first category (25 to 49)
Enter number for first category (1) in right hand screen.
Click Add
Enter range of ratio numbers (50 to 54) for category two
Enter number for second category (2)
Click Add
Click Continue
Click Change
