Chapter 4 The IBM SPSS statistics environment
4.10 The syntax editor
Using syntax creates a record of your analysis and makes it reproducible, which is an
important part of engaging in open science practices.

To open a syntax editor window:
- File > new > syntax

, The easiest way to generate syntax in the beginning is to use dialog boxes to specify the
analysis you want to do and then click > paste

You can run the syntax a command at a time from either the current command (Run >
step through > from current) or the beginning (run > step through > from start)




Chapter 6 The beast of bias
6.2 What is bias?
Bias: the summary statistics that we estimate can be at odds with the true values
Models will not predict the outcome perfectly, so for each observation there is some amount of
error.



6.3 Outliers
Outlier: a score very different from the rest of the data
