The results use the numbers I used to represent the options, how do I get the values actually to show
E.g instead of how many people choose 1, how many people chose a burger which 1 stands

[@liveinnovationorg]

Hey! Simply go to the "variable view" bar, and look for the option of "values". There you can change it. In this video here I explain it: ruclips.net/video/1cJxJ8pDoWk/видео.html

[@PuteraIrfan]

So frequency is used for categorical variables while descriptive is used for numerical right?

[@liveinnovationorg]

Hmm.. difficult to explain in short. But basically categorical values are very simple in comparison to continuous values, and so there are limited tests you can apply. Frequencies are one of them, along with Chi-square (testing for their association), for example. Hope that helps!

[@shenekagabriel5222]

how would we do this (work out frequency and percentage) when looking at gender and desired age of last child with a range of different numbers as answers ?

[@liveinnovationorg]

Hi Sheneka, you can apply frequencies for it as well. And even try other tests, such as "Mode", would make sense. Have a great tday!

[@rahinatudunniah5494]

so how do u calculate the precentage from the mean or standard deviation
