    Video Transcript: In this tutorial we'll take a look at how to produce a box plot in SPSS. And notice here we have the variable college GPA where we have the values our GPAs of 10 different people. To produce a boxplot you want to go to Graphs and then select Legacy Dialogs under Legacy Dialogs you want to select Boxplot so go ahead and click on that. And then here notice Simple is selected by default that's what we want and then you want to make sure that Summaries of separate variables is selected. Go and click Define and then here we have college GPA we want to move that over to Boxes Represent. So click the right arrow button there and then this looks good, so let's go ahead and click OK. Then here we get our boxplot. We get a Case Processing Summary table first of all. That just tells us that all 10 observations were valid 0 were missing. So that looks great. And then our boxplot is shown here and double-click on to open up the Chart Editor. In this box plot there's a few values of interest we want to describe here. This value here the thick line is the Median, also known as the 50th percentile. And if we have all of our values ranked from lowest to highest, for example, the median divides the data set exactly in half. This value down here is the first quartile, also known as the 25th percentile. This point right here in our boxplot, 25% of the values are below it. The top part of our box here corresponds to the 75th percentile, also known as the third quartile. 75% of the values in our data set are below this point. And finally here these values here this line at the bottom here and this line at the top here represent the minimum and the maximum values in our data set, respectively. They are the minimum and maximum as long as there aren't any outliers and if there were any outliers you would see either one or more circles or asterisks either below this point or above this point here. And in fact let's go ahead and create an outlier or two, so you can see what that looks like.

    Could you explain how to create a boxplot using an estimated marginal means?

      Do you want two separate variables plotted on the same graph?

      +Quantitative Specialists Hi. I have a boxplot of the results of a 5-point likertscale (N=91). This boxplot has just 3 visible percentiles. Like just 1 box and 1 line above it, 1 line below it. Could that be because, for instance people did answer 3 and 5 but nobody answered 4? Below that boxplot (still within the graph area) there are some numbers, in this case the letter O and 5, 36 and 63. I have no idea how to interpret these.

    • @GierJoost
      @GierJoost 8 лет назад

      +Joost G Oh wait those are outliers? So those that mean that entry 5, entry 36 and entry 63 are very distant from the other observations?

      @@GierJoost I'll reply 5 years too late (you probably figured it out), it means they are distant values, but not extremely so. (extreme values are *)
