SPSS Online Documentation
VCU has a site license for SPSS and SPSS Online Documentation. For off campus access, you will be prompted to login with your VCU eID and password. (these are the same as you use for VCU email or Blackboard).
To read and review these files, you should have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your machine. If you need this, there is a free download available from the Adobe website.
Many of the documents below are tutorials that teach through hands-on exercises. Other documents are reference manuals.
The documents are listed below as either CURRENT or OLDER:
- CURRENT – These are the latest available documentation from SPSS.
- OLDER – These were written for older versions of SPSS products. However, although they are not completely accurate for current product versions, they contain much information that is still applicable/useful for current versions, and that information may not be freely available elsewhere.
