Reference no: EM131509049

Question: Use the data from the variable ("avgspeed") created in the previous exercise to recode the values into a nominal (string) variable. Your task is to use SPSS's Recode into Different Variables feature and form two categories for the average walking speeds of the individuals. The two categories are based on the average speed of 2.9 miles per hour for all walkers. All speeds above the mean are to be classified as Fast; those below the mean are classified as Slow. You will create a new nominal or string variable called "catspeed."
