Cutting-edge Spss Test - 67+ MCQs: SPSS Quiz: Test Your Statistical Knowledge with SPSS Questions and Answers

1. In multivariate analysis using SPSS, what is the purpose of a MANOVA?

To compare means across multiple groups

To analyze relationships between two variables

To test the equality of variances

To examine interactions between categorical and continuous variables

2. Which statistical test is appropriate for assessing the relationship between two categorical variables in SPSS?

Pearson correlation

Independent samples t-test

Chi-square test

Linear regression

3. What is the purpose of the 'Paired-Samples T Test' in SPSS?

To compare means of independent groups.

To examine relationships between two categorical variables.

To compare means of related groups.

To perform non-parametric tests.

4. What is the primary purpose of the 'Bootstrapping' technique in SPSS?

To assess the normality of data

To estimate sampling distributions

To impute missing values

To perform exploratory factor analysis

5. How does SPSS handle missing data in a dataset?

SPSS does not support datasets with missing values.

SPSS automatically removes any records with missing data.

SPSS replaces missing values with the average of the available data.

SPSS only works with complete datasets and does not handle missing data.

6. In SPSS, what statistical test is appropriate for comparing the means of three or more groups when the assumption of homogeneity of variances is violated?

Welch's ANOVA

Kruskal-Wallis test

Friedman test

Paired samples t-test

7. In SPSS, what is the purpose of the 'Multinomial Logistic Regression' procedure?

To predict continuous outcomes

To analyze categorical variables with more than two categories

To perform survival analysis

To assess the interaction effects in regression models

8. What is the purpose of the 'Random Sample' function in SPSS?

To generate a sample with equal probabilities

To create random variables

To randomize cases for experimentation

To select cases based on a specific criterion

9. In SPSS, what is the purpose of a 'P-value' in hypothesis testing?

The P-value represents the population size in the analysis.

The P-value indicates the probability of observing the data if the null hypothesis is true.

The P-value is a measure of the sample standard deviation.

The P-value is unrelated to hypothesis testing in SPSS.

10. What is the difference between a within-subjects ANOVA and a repeated measures ANOVA in SPSS?

They are synonymous terms

Within-subjects ANOVA involves independent groups, while repeated measures ANOVA involves dependent groups

Repeated measures ANOVA is used for categorical variables, while within-subjects ANOVA is used for continuous variables

Within-subjects ANOVA is used for categorical variables, while repeated measures ANOVA is used for continuous variables
