Statistical Data Analysis with SPSS is a course intended for students with few or no experience with the statistical software SPSS. The course is designed to introduce the basic statistics necessary to analyze data provided by various quantitative studies using SPSS. The course will offer students an overview of the following issues: 1) the basic notions in statistics - population, parameters, descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, sample, variables etc.; 2) creating data files in SPSS, 3) running statistical analysis, reading outputs and interpreting the results of the analysis. In other words, graduates of this course are able to:
- explain basic notions in statistics

Students are expected to complete weekly readings prior to class, prepare their weekly assignments, and attend classes. There will be regular homework during the semester. Homework (including Output) should submitted no later by Wednesday. Turn the electronic documents (as either a *.doc file or a *.pdf file) into the homework vault in is.muni.cz
Metody hodnocení
Conditions for passing the course:
1. Systematic work on and written responses to weekly homework
2. Active participation in class (10-12 minutes)
3. Final exam

Particular activities of students will be evaluated as follows:
30% - reading, responses and class participation
70% - final exam

The course ends with an exam based on the theoretical and practical issues presented during the semester: a written test (20 minutes) designed to evaluate the theoretical issues, and a practical test (60 minutes) aimed to evaluate SPSS usage in solving a statistical problem. 628 pages - weekly reading
