The SPSS Inc website

SPSS are now owned by IBM. The following links lead to the appropriate IBM pages now.

http://www-01.ibm.com/software/analytics/spss/ The home page of the SPSS Inc. website
http://www-01.ibm.com/software/uk/analytics/spss/ SPSS Inc. UK page

(If at some future time SPSS Inc change the structure of their website, you may find that only the first of the above links still works.)

SPSS Macros on the Internet

Alguns sites com macros para SPSS

Alguns sites com macros para SPSS

What sources of SPSS macros are available on the Internet?

Here are a few that I know about; I hope other people will tell us about ones that should be listed but aren’t.

An obvious starting point is SPSS Inc’s own Macro Library at http://www.spss.com/tech/stat/macros/ (it doesn’t contain very many, though, and they are statistical rather than utilities). If you are planning to adapt or write macros, it’s also worth seeing what’s in SPSS Inc’s AnswerNet Solutions. Go to http://www.spss.com/tech/answer/, specify Product; SPSS Base and Free Text: macro, then click on the page’s Search button.Raynald Levesque’s site http://pages.infinit.net/rlevesqu/ includes many pages on macros (including examples and some tutorial materials). But you should also look at the examples in his pages on syntax, as some of these are based on macros.

Newsgroups are also a useful source of macros. Searches of their archives can be very rewarding if you can get your search terms right (see our Other Internet Resources page).

Confidence intervals for proportions, differences between proportions and related quantities. See Dr Robert G. Newcombe’s home page at http://www.uwcm.ac.uk/uwcm/ms/Robert.html. Note that these are SPSS programs rather than macros, despite being described as macros by the author.

Polytomous logistic regression (of particular interest to users of SPSS 8.0 and earlier). For macros by John Hendrickx and Prof. Dr. Steffen Kühnel see http://www.sls.wau.nl/bk/bedrijfskunde/jhendrickx/spss/mlogist/

Regression: evaluating collinearity in models with interactions or non-linear terms. For a macro by Ben Pelzer, Manfred te Grotenhuis, Jan Lammers, John Hendrickx, see http://www.sls.wau.nl/bk/bedrijfskunde/jhendrickx/spss/perturb/perturb.html

Why Predictive Modelers Should be Suspicious of Statistical Tests

Um excelente exemplo de correlações espúrias

Um excelente exemplo de correlações espúrias

Well, the danger is really not the statistical test per se, it the interpretation of the statistical test.

Yesterday I tweeted (@deanabb) this fun factoid: “Redskins predict Romney wins POTUS #overfit. if Redskins lose home game before election => challenger wins (17/18) http://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon/2012/11/04/nfl-redskins-rule-romney/1681023/” I frankly had never heard of this “rule” before and found it quite striking. It even has its own Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redskins_Rule).

For those of us in the predictive analytics or data mining community, and those of us who use statistical tests to help out interpreting small data, 17/18 we know is a hugely significant finding. This can frequently be good: statistical tests will help us gain intuition about value of relationships in data even when they aren’t obvious.

Welcome to Malbowges, the part of Nether Hell dominated by thieves, counsellors of Fraud (or should that just be counsellors), falsifiers and sowers of discord. It’s not a nice place for Sunday lunch. You must wade through rivers of Lucifer’s sputum to reach the answers you seek, and when you find those answers, you’ll probably wish you hadn’t bothered. Revenge is mine, ah ha ha, yah ha ha, ya ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha …

Welcome to the wood of suicides (is anyone getting all these Dante references or am I just wasting my time here?), where self flagellation is the name of the game. You will experience the bowel-evacuating effect of multiple regression, the bone-splintering power of ANOVA and the nose-hair pulling torment of factor analysis. Can you cope: I think not, mortal filth. Be warned, your brain will be placed in a jar of cerebral fluid and I will toy with it at my leisure.
