Dear Sir, I wanted to let you know that this video of yours is one of the best teaching videos that I came across. The way you explain and visualise the topics is great. Please keep up the good work!
Thanks. I do put a lot of time into my best videos so this kind of feedback is really welcome. May I also add that I am a teacher, so rest assure that there are students that benefit from my teaching, hands on, every week ;-)
***** Dear Sir, I'm happy if Feedback like this motivates u even more. Do u also have a teaching video on binary logistic Regression or do you have a source where I can learn that task in SPSS? I would very much appreciate it!
The best video on normality tests because unlike most others that that tell you to use skewness, kurtosis, histogram, blah blah, you explain step by step how to carry out a normality test, how to interpret the outcomes and how to report findings. Thanks a great deal Kent.
Are you a university lecturer? Well you should be, because this is so easy to understand than reading hundreds of articles/journals to interpret the results i get from SPSS. Any students would be so lucky to have you as their teachers. Thanks this helps me a lot!
I have been trying to get to grips with SPSS for a year now, and I can honestly say this explanation is the best I have ever had. I have had Lectures, read books, watched videos, gone through handouts numerous times. And I had to comment! Thank you so much! Danielle University Student England
I was stuck with my thesis several times because of being unable to understand a thing in SPSS no matter how many videos, books and "how to's" i run through and FINALLY (!!!) i find the best explanation ever! So now I see that SPSS is actually not so scary and i can tame it :D
My assignment is due in 8 hours, I've spent 20 hours watching TH-cam content, reading Google/reddits etc and I still couldn't understand 20 hours later. I just stumbled across your video and I FINALLY GET IT. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH YOU HELPED ME. THANK YOU. Keep going. And doing what you do. I appreciate you.
I have to say that this is THE BEST explanation of normality tests that I have come across (and thats after having looked at a handful of text books, tons of videos and google). The reason I like it is that it actually explains the reasoning for doing normality tests, and more importantly, how to report the results. Excellent! Thanks Kent
Your explanation is outstanding!! I am new to statistics and I conducted a search on SPSS and your video came up. Seven years later you are right on point! Thank you for this video!!
I'm really amazed by your simplistic yet intriguing explanation. Finally, I learned how to test the normality of data in SPSS. Thank you for making this video.
Great to hear! I try to make them as simple as possible. The risk, though, is that they become too slooow ;-) However, I learn and improve all the time and the characteristics of my tutorial videos change all the time.
***** Pls make video explaining what is logic of using a F-test which is for F-distribution on on ANOVA when you have assumed that sample comes from normal distribution
You explain slowly and clearly enough for my brain to understand, I am currently searching for more of your videos on statistics because you just might be my saving grace.
You are an absolute genius! I am doing epidemiology and biostatistics at uni and our teacher doesnt teach us anything. There are no terms or definitions or even explanations of variables etc. They simply do examples of data, showing graphs and tables and then in class we do examples of SPSS data but I don't understand what it all means, there are no interpretations etc. We have done studies in groups on a simulation database and have a report due this weekend and still they haven't explain how to do run the analysis in SPSS or how to report and interpret the data. So I thank you for being an actual teacher!
Dear Kent Löfgren I really appreciate for your perfect tutorial because I figure out what i couldn't understand in two semester from a professor on SPSS course.
one of the best video i have ever seen, and the best thing what i found in this video is the explanation is in a scientific way with number of references
thank you for so nicely explaining the normality test. I was in search of this explanation for the last many months and found your video. I will watch the rest of your videos so that I could understand my research data. I love learning biostatistics but found no one in my area to help me. Finally found your video. I wish you were my teacher.
Sir, I would like to appreciate the effort you put into making your videos. Your videos are very systematic and comprehensive. It is also very easy to understand and follow ur instructions. Thank you so much. Suddenly statistics seems doable. Great help. Thank you once again.
Have watched too many videos but in this video I have found all the necessary details and you made it in a way so that anyone can understand it. Thank you sir!
Dear Sir, Despite the fact that my comment is coming about 5 years late, nonetheless, I feel highly obliged to write it - it is now that I found myself needing such a lecture! The narrative is very clear and simple for anyone to understandard - no unnecessary jargons, not too fast to be frustrating, not too slow to be boring! The graphics and animation is also not overwhelming - its just okay! I hope to come across more of such video lectures that are tailored towards the 'laymen' in statistics.
Yes, one category may have data that are non-normal and you can correct that (transforming data) if you want to use parametric tests (t-test or ANOVA for example). I would google for square root transformation (abbreviated SQRT in SPSS). Best of luck with your research and paper.
Dear Sir This is the first video of yours I have watched and wanted to let you know that this one video itself has made me search for your other related videos. Your way of teaching is great. I have a query here. you said that if one category has a non-normal data we can opt for transforming the data. Is transforming data applicable in a case where one of the four levels of independent variables is not normally distributed? Of the four levels of an independent variable, one is not normally distributed. Can I go for parametric tests or should I opt for transforming that particular data of independent variable?? Please help.
Wow, thanks a lot for this excellent video! This is the first time I see someone explaining it so well and even providing sources and reporting tips. Awesome!
Great video and incredibly helpful. The narrative and visuals were very thorough and delivered at a pace that made it very easy to pick up the concepts and procedures. Also, as someone who tends to struggle with statistics, I appreciate you explaining everything and not assuming a baseline of knowledge. Thanks so much!
This is the best educational video I have ever seen by far. Currently carrying out preliminary tests of normality on my data and it was a huge help. Thank you so much!
Thank you very much for explaining so clearly! Wonderful pace of speech and amount of information (not more or less) for my brain to take on statistics. This way of using speech together with text and visuals helped me understand!
Thank you very much sir for this great video. The way you teach is easy to understand and for the first time in my life as PG student I know now how to analyse data normality. Keep up the good work sir!
That was honestly the best SPSS tutorial I have ever watched... would love to see some more on regression, T-tests etc in detail if you ever get a chance.
Respected Sir, You just saved my day sir, I am glad to come across a channel like yours's whose primary motive is to teach in the simplest way possible with detailed information. kindly keep us showering with such great videos.
Dear Kent Löfgren, thank you so much for this video. It is so clear, so helpful, and the best that I have seen here on youtube. Thanks to you I finally know what to do and how to proceed with my thesis. Ánd how to write it down (I really appreciated that part of the video!). You are an EXCELLENT teacher! Thank you thank you thank you!
Superb explanation - thank you. Something incredibly difficult made simple. Appreciate the how to write up statistical methods (ignoring z values) and even how to reference it with the final reminder that it is for parametric analysis (eg t-test). You make stats fun at last!
Dear Sir, Thank you so much for the lesson and sharing. This was the only videos I could understand after watching and reading few books. Thank you again sir. I hope you have a nice day.
Giorgia Wa Thanks for your kind words. I just released a new video, about survey data: th-cam.com/video/MMG1KRP9BP0/w-d-xo.html Good luck with your work/studies!
thank you so much for creating this video. before i watched this i had no idea what to do with my data but now i feel like there's a little hope. please keep up the amazing work!
Sir, really thankful for this wonderful video. I have been going through many videos but this has all in one and so well explained. Thank you very much for all the efforts taken and may you be blessed with more strength to serve the people. God bless you
Thanks a ton for this video, I was looking high and low for explanation on normality tests using skewness kurtosis values, as the other normality tests weren't positive. Excellent explanation and reporting style. Very grateful to Kent.
Great video, saved me from really struggling with my dissertation data analysis! Thanks for the reference list too as I needed to reference how and why I carried out these tests!
Hello, I just wanted say thank you for this Video. Your video was very informative, you were very clear and you made it easy to understand. I no longer feel the panic of having to explain myself to an examiner. I hope to improve by looking at your videos so that I can become more confident. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and taking the time to make these videos.
@@kentlofgren Can you please tell me how to transfer the data based on the mean, prob, and standard deviation (IDF Normal). What mean should I input ? I tried to transfer the data but it still skewed again !!

hi, Avteam, It is also someone I saw on this topic, thanks Kent!
yup, i do agree with that

Easy and best among hundreds I have watched! Great thanks sir.
Now this is one example for excellent structured video. Provide aims , explanations etc. Wish my lecturers knew how to explain like this. Thank you!

The best video on the Internet so far. 100/100 recommended!
Thank you very much for your lesson, it is the clearest and most helpful on TH-cam!
Now this is what you call statistics/SPSS for dummies! So helpful. Thanks.
Thank you Kent for a very clear explanation of normality exploration on SPSS. This video is applicable for JASP users too.
