Access the attached dataset (Munro.sav). Open the data file using SPSS and explore the data. Do the following exercises -
1. Access the data set called MUNR004.SAV, which contains data collected using the survey form contained in Appendix G. Either bring it into SPSS or convert it into a file for SAS or whatever software you are using. Print the dictionary, which contains a list of the variables, formats, and labels. In most versions of SPSS for Windows, this is done by clicking on Utilities, and then on File Info. Once the file is in the output screen, it can be printed from the File menu.
2. Compare the file information with the survey form in Appendix G. Note that the variable names have been selected to reflect each variable, making it easy to recognize them when working with the file. Variable labels and value labels hay been added to enhance the output. Look for any discrepancies between the survey form and the file information.
3. Produce charts/graphs. Many options are available for producing charts in statistical software programs. They may be produced within specific techniques and in separate graphics sections. We will confine ourselves to requesting graphics that are available with the specific techniques. The following can be requested as part of the output from frequencies in most software programs. Within the frequencies program, request a bar graph for GENDER, a histogram for SATCURWT, and histogram with a polygon (normal curve) for SATCURWT.
