- In this SPSS tutorial for beginners, I will teach you how to generate your first output by using the descriptive statistics, frequencies and crosstabs menus. We will both be using these menu's, but also using syntax as I showed you in my previous tutorial.

I like your videos and the way you make it simple
Firstly thanks for these great tutorials. I am a complete beginner with SPSS (and it's been a long time since I thought about stats at uni!) and am finding them really accessible and informative.
Quick question for you - sure it's a pretty basic one so apologies in advance....when you are analysing data and specifically comparing groups using crosstabs, how do you decide which category goes in the "row" and which in the "column"?
Thanks again,
Georgie
Hello Georgie, thank you for your question! It truly does not matter how you display the table, you should think about how you want to present your data in your manuscript and than choose the format in SPSS. You can always swtich rows / colums around if you have made a mistake, it does not matter for the analyses that SPSS is performing.
