The Library produced short Cantonese tutorials and organized workshops on SPSS and has subscribed to Linkedin Learning (former Lynda.com) and SAGE Research Methods Videos which provides SPSS online courses and tutorials. Of course, we also have books! There are also free websites you can use to learn SPSS.
SPSS means “Statistical Package for the Social Sciences” and was first launched in 1968. Since SPSS was acquired by IBM in 2009, it's officially known as IBM SPSS Statistics but most users still just refer to it as “SPSS”. SPSS is software for editing and analyzing all sorts of data. These data may come from basically any source: scientific research, a customer database, Google Analytics or even the server log files of a website.
We provide advice and resources to enable you to develop and/or extend your statistical computing skills, helping you to independently use common statistical packages (R, Stata, SAS, SPSS) for the analysis of research data.
