Hi Alexander, I am an undergraduate student and have so much data to analyse but have no clue how im going to do it. Do you have any advise on this? Alot of questions and answers?
Hi Alexander, thanks for the video! If you wanted to calculate (for example) a mean score from 20 variables that are are adjacent to each other in your data sheet, is there a shorthand way to do this in the formula? Eg. MEAN(item1 to item20) or MEAN (item1-item20)
Hi Alexander, informative and funny vid! I would like to combine 55 variables into one. To follow your example: 55 items centered around my relationship with cats - the mean or median of which I then have in a variable to call this "cat relationship scale". Can u help me? Greets from Germany
Dude you are loosing us trying to explain every single little computed variable differnces you can do. Could you just show in an easy way first? Like, click here, do this, then you got it. Im falling off inbetween from all the information on stuff we will never use.
Apologies, but the title does say "compute variables", so this encapsulates the whole thing. I guess I could make a video series for each computation, but I don't have that time right now.

Start small and work you way up. Small steps into larger ones and ask questions at each stage!

or
MEAN (item1-item20)
Hmm, I have not tried any shorthand. As far as I’m aware, there isn’t, but I can’t say for sure!
Hi@@AlexanderSwan, Were you able to find a way to enter a range of variables like we do in SPSS with operators like A TO C?
Hi Alexander, if you are doing a linear regression equation and creating a new variable, how do you type the multiplication symbol into the formula?
I’m not sure what exactly you’re asking, but multiplication on computers is done with the asterisk (*)

I would go with mean, not knowing anything else about these 55 items
