How to combine seperate columns in SPSS
Просмотров 31 тыс.7 лет назад
If you download your SPSS file from Qualtrics and there are separate columns for each condition, this video will tell you how to combine them! Sometimes this happens accidentally and sometimes this happens because the researcher adapts the items slightly depending on condition. Either way, this video will help! Comment below or e-mail (meg.huntoon@gmail.com) me with questions.
What to do when Qualtrics automatically recoded your values in your SPSS file
Просмотров 4,1 тыс.8 лет назад
This video explains what to do if you download your data from Qualtrics and your scale values (e.g., from 1 to 7) have been automatically recoded to some other numbers (e.g., from 14 to 20). In this video, I explain how to identify and fix the problem, and also how to prevent it from happening in the future.
SPSS- How to get a Qualtrics Data file ready for Analyses
Просмотров 44 тыс.8 лет назад
In this brief video, I show an easy way to get experiment data collected using Qualtrics ready for analysis in SPSS. Specifically, I explain how you know which condition participants were assigned to and how to create variables that allow you to analyze the data with a one-way or crossed anova using point and click methods.
Hi there, is it the same when working with nominal/categorical data? I've done a survey through Qualtrics for psych honours project using all nominal data. When importing from Qualtrics into SPSS participants responses for every question and condition are coming up with their own column (Multiple columns for each Question, and responses are either 1 or a dot). How do I combine categorical responses into one column, so that I can then assign values? At the moment each categorical response all have the value of "1" so I'm unsure how I would be able to tell what category they were originally in if I use a "sum" option.
Hi there! This trick is for numerical data. It won't work for nominal data, but there are other tricks you can do. Perhaps the simplest if you have few participants is sorting the data and then a quick copy and paste, if I am honest with you :) Feel free to send me an email of you have additional questions (meg.huntoon@gmail.com).
Omg, I just spent 2hrs trying to figure this out and you saved me!!! Thank you. 😅❤
Thank you.
Hi Meg! Thank you so much for this helpful video. I still have a problem merging the columns: so I have 3 conditions that I 'd like to merge. The problem is that once they are combined, two of the conditions are identified by number 1, while the other one is 2, so I can't label them correctly. Before merging, all these conditions are shown by 1 (basically once the participant chose one of these three responses, it is shown as 1 in each of these columns. Could you let me know how we recognize these answers and label them once merged together?
Hello! Thanks for your comment! I would change one of them to a different number before the merge by recoding them. That should do the trick :) email me if you have questions about how to do that (meg.huntoon@gmail.com)!
Hi thank you for the helpful video. However, I have difficulties to combine two variables. I have two questions in my survey regarding the educational level (1. Which education are you currently following?, Which is your highest level of education achieved?) Both questions are categorized in level low, middle, high. Now I would like to combine these questions. For example 5 participants low (first question), 3 participants low (second question) --> 8 participants low. I am looking forward to your response. THNANK YOU! Johanna
Hi! Thanks for your comment! If I’m understanding correctly, you’re looking to create a count of the number of „low“responses? If so, check out this video: ruclips.net/video/YQSKLLlJSeg/видео.html If that’s not quite what you were looking for, send me an email and I’ll try to help! Meg.huntoon@gmail.com
Soo helpful. Thanks Meg
Awesome video! Thanks Meg
Great video!! Thank you!
Genial!!! No sabía como realizar la agrupación. Muchas gracias por subir tu video.
So to do a 2 way ANCOVA, I need to do what you did after making the condition column? (I have one IV and one Moderator)
To run an ANCOVA you’ll have one variable that is categorical and one that is continuous. You’ll use this to get the categorical variable in order. If you have additional questions, you can send a little more information about your project to my email, Meg.huntoon@gmail.com) and I can try to help :)
Most helpful vid ever!!!! Haha exactly what I needed for my thesis. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much, this was super helpful!
Thank you for the video, I am going to run a standard multiple regression, I have 3 IV’s each with 3 levels, would I add the 3 levels to make just 1 IV or should I keep them all as separate variables in the variable view to analyse?
Thank you for watching! If you have IVs with levels, you will want to dummy code them (or effect code) and calculate the interactions if you are using regression. If you need more info or have questions for your specific project, feel free to send me an email with some details and I will try to help :) Meg.huntoon@gmail.com
@@huntoon6393 wow, thank you so so much!
Thanks for that. We were wondering why this was happening. I thought Quadratics developed sentience and had gone rogue!
I wonder if I want to combine two variabel into one, ex. Var A: 1 var: 2 & I want the new variabel value is 12 not 3. How do you do that ?
Thank you for watching! It depends on how your variables are set up (are they string variables or numeric) and is there data in both variables that you are hoping to combine. If you would like, send specifics about your data to my email (meg.huntoon@gmail.com) and I can help you decide which method will be best for your project.
It is super helpful!!
Most helpful ever! saved my master thesis literally.. Thank you so much !
I usually never comment on RUclips, but this video solved my problem that I didn't even know how to Google correctly to find the answer. Many thanks! You're saving our academic degrees :D!
Thank you so much!
Wow this saved my life!!! Thank you so much!!!
Hi Meg, thank you for your helpful video! Could you please also explain how to prepare the dependent variable for the analysis? Thank you!
I just responded to your email! 🙂
@@SpaGamingNL It depends on what your data looks like. Send me a little info (meg.huntoon@gmail.com) about what you are trying to do and I'll see if I can help.
@@huntoon6393 May you please help me out on this same issue trying to do a multiple regression using data from Qualtrics
@@rufarobvocheko144 Of course! Feel free to send me an email with a little info about your project (IV, DV) and I can see if I can help. My email is meg.huntoon@gmail.com :)
I waisted an afternoon trying to get this to work before watching your video, you just went to the top of my Christmas card list.
Is there a similar function to deal with "String" data? Or does this only work for "Numeric" Data?
And I figured it out... you need to select "String" for output type with you select compute variable, make sure the length fits the length of your string then use CONCAT(V1, V2, ...)
The Funky Deep great! Glad you figured it out! Good luck with your work.
@@huntoon6393 thanks!
This was helpful! thank you!
thank you so much!!!! it was very much helpful!!
Thank you this was SO helpful! I'm just wondering if there are any other ways to do this? For example, I had dataset with the variable "height" measured randomly in cm or ft (and another with "what unit did you choose") and needed to create a new column with everything in cm. I could not find a way to do multiple IF statements without using Syntax (I'm extremely new to SPSS and stats software in general) and ended up just using compute variable twice with different functions to make 2 columns with measurements in cm then merge them like this. It worked perfectly but maybe not the most efficient...
in the middle of doing my MSc dissertation and this totally saved my life
You just saved my master thesis. THANK YOU!
I hope it will save mine too
Thank you!
Thank you so much Meg! This really helps a lot. I have sent you an e-mail with a question, hopefully you can help me out.
Hi thanks for the Video. One question though; assuming the respondents are allowed to pick more than one response say fix and growth where both is not an option, how do I represent the response in a single table?
Do you have an answer to this?
Thank you very much, this was extremely helpful. I am subscribing.
Helo megatron , Super nice video !
Very helpful. Thanks you
Useful video, thank you. Only distraction was your quick speed when coding the new variables and your habit of singing/raising inflection of your.....voice, at the end of each..action. Otherwise all good. :)
ver useful video, thanks!!! but i have questions, I get missing values in the new column (condition), what did it happen and how to solve it? thanks in advance
Erlin Fadillah Did you remember to type sum.1? That might be the reason that missing values are showing. Also, double check that your original columns weren’t missing data. That might be the case as well.
Hi Megatron 24, I have a quick question. I have a 2 by 2 + 1 experimental design. I created two independent variables. However, I don't know how to code them. The levels of my first IV are either whether a message is serious or humorous. The levels of my second IV are either whether a solution is offered in the message or not. Moreover, one of the groups is an isolated control group that was not exposed to these treatments. What values do I put for this group?
Naomi van Bree Hello! Thank you for your comment. Are you trying to combine the separate columns in your data like is shown in the video? If so, then this method will work the same as shown with your design, only you will need to add all the columns for each DV (in your case, three for each). If instead you are hoping to code your IV to fit with the analyses you want to run, then how you code them will depend on what you are hoping to do with the data. Does that help?
@@huntoon6393 Thank you for your quick reply! Firstly, I created a "condition" column like you showed in one of your previous videos. I have 5 conditions in total, one of which is the isolated control group that was not exposed to the treatments. Then I created two new variables for my IVs. However, I don't know how to code these variables. Should I use effect coding like 1 for humor and -1 for serious or dummy coding like 1 for humor and 0 for serious? Or can I do it like you did it in your previous video (1 = humor, 2 = serious). I want to perform a 2 by 2 ANOVA in which I compare the means of my treatment groups (and the interaction between my IVs). But I also need to compare my control group with my treatment groups. However, basically the data for my control group is "missing" for my IVs, since this group was not exposed to any of the treatments. I don't really know what value to put for this group in my two columns for my IVs. The same goes for one of my dependent variables. I only measured it for my treatment groups but not for my control group. If this isn't clear, is there a way I can maybe e-mail you to show some screenshots and explain more clearly what I mean?
Naomi van Bree Naomi van Bree That makes sense. If you have a priori hypotheses, I would use planned comparisons to analyze your data. I don’t have a video on that type of analyses, but there are many of them out there. If you want to run a regular anova, I would code the control condition as 0 in one of your IVs. In that case, you will have a 2(humor vs none) x 3 (solution vs none vs control). I believe running the analyses in this way will provide you the tests you are hoping for. One thing I am struggling to understand is what your control condition adds beyond the group who received no humor and no solution, but I am likely just not picturing the design correctly in my head. Was it that the control condition didn’t receive any stimuli?
@@huntoon6393 My research is about webcare responses. Basically, one group received a message with humor but without a solution, another group received a message with humour and with a solution, another group received a message without humor (serious) without a solution and finally one group received a serious message with a solution. The control group did not receive any message. This group was therefore not exposed to the two IVs. I created the two IVs in my dataset. Since my control group wasn't exposed to any of the IVs at all, I'm not sure what value I need to put for this group in my two IV columns. If, for example, I code humour versus serious with 1 and 0 (e.g. 1 = humour, 0 = serious), how do I code the group that did not get exposed to humour at all? What value do I put in there?
Naomi van Bree Ok. That makes sense. You can code the control group as I suggested in my previous reply to run an anova. The output will give you comparisons and interactions for each group. You will also want to request the means so that you can tell the direction of effects. And of course follow up any significant interactions with post hoc tests.
Thanks, it was very helpful
thankx!
Super helpful video! Just saved me from a significant data error in my Masters research, thanks so much for sharing!
Great video. My only criticism is that it's a bit fast and therefore a little hard to keep up with.
Hi, I appreciate the clarity of your videos but I am still having some challenges with my survey data. How can I contact you to get further explanations? Thank.
Hello, you can e-mail me at meg.huntoon@gmail.com. Thanks!
Hi have sent you an email :)
Helpful. Is there a way to just merge the columns without sum?
Yes, you can use syntax to combine the columns. This method was covered on this research gate thread: www.researchgate.net/post/How_do_I_combine_2_variables_in_SPSS_into_one_and_copy_the_values_from_the_original_variables
Great video! Unfortunately when I do it this way I get the comment: “The numeric argument required for the function specified was not supplied.” What am I doing wrong?
Hi Ruben! Thanks for watching. Can you post or e-mail (meg.huntoon@gmail.com) me the formula you typed into the compute variable box? Is it possible that you are missing a parenthesis or comma or have an equal sign that isn't needed?
Already solved the problem, still thank you for your response!
Great!! Glad you fixed it!!
Hi Ruben, I ran into the same problem. Could you please share how you resolved it? Thanks!
Hi Megatron, this video was very helpful and really helped me to clear my data up. I was just wondering how you got SPSS to change your data from numerical variables into words? Because this is something that I would really like to do as it would help me to have a clearer overview of my data.
Hi Emma! So sorry that this response is so delayed. I didn't notice that this video's comments were no longer linked to my e-mail. To change your variables to words you can click the "variable view" tab and then type over numeric (Q1, Q2) names using no spaces.
or just press "value labels" if you did everything like it is shown in this video. I had the same issue, then i accidentally pressed that button and the names suddenly appeared
This is a great video which really helped me work out SPSS! The only thing I am struggling on is you say in order to do a One-Way Anova all that is needed is the conditions column made but how? If you could help I would really appreciate it! Many thanks
Hi Dani! So sorry that this response is so delayed. I didn't notice that this video's comments were no longer linked to my e-mail. I am sure you have already answered this question on your own, however if you still need help feel free to e-mail me at meg.huntoon@gmail.com. Thanks!
Thanks so much for this! I noticed that there were perfect columns with 1's indicating which condition participant was assigned to.. does that only happen when you export the data into SPSS? Cause I've been testing out my survey and results on Excel and it doesn't create a column for condition. So I've been struggling to figure out which participant is in which condition. I've been playing around with embedded data but I feel I'm confusing myself - especially since my survey flow looked a lot like yours!
Hi Patty, The columns that Qualtrics shows should match what you called the question. Feel free to e-mail me (meg.huntoon@gmail.com) so we can chat about your specific survey to figure out what might be going on! Thanks!
Hi Patty! So sorry that this response is so delayed. I didn't notice that this video's comments were no longer linked to my e-mail. I believe that this column should show up when using excel as well. I wonder if you might not be getting this column due to the options selected in the export menu. You will want to make sure you are exporting the entire file.
@@huntoon6393 I am experiencing the same issue..
I solved it! The problem was when exporting the data!
enure that yyou use the legacy format when downlaoding your file from qualtrics (not the table format). This either an option in the beginning or you find it on the very top right of the file download pop up screen
Thanks a lot! :)
Hi, i have conducted an online experiment with 6 experimental conditions. In each condition, respondents had to answer the same set of questions. How do I organize this in spss?
Hello! Great question. Are you hoping to use a one way anova to analyse your data? If so, then you will create one condition variable with all six conditions represented. Please feel free to send me an e-mail at mhuntoon@niu.edu if you would like additional help with your specific data. Thanks!
