Hello in the week 10 everyone,

Nowadays, it’s undeniable that research plays enormous impacts on people’s
life. The most important tool to support the success of research is that
statistics used. There are several computer programs developed for helping researchers
conducting research easier in terms of quantified data analysis. This week we
will discuss about one of the common used program is SPSS.

My experiences with SPSS
I used to approach to the SPSS program in 2012 when I analysed data for my Master degree.
Personally, I particular like this program because it was not too difficult to deal with. The most
important part is that we need to know what statistics being used to fit with
our quantified data being tested. Therefore, when I look back in previous
several weeks in this module, I recognize that all of them are vital parts that
required deeply insight because the key element for conducing positive impacts of the research is researcher. Even though we have full of weapons, it's less useful if we can't make a right decision to use them properly. Other reason why I love the SPSS is that there are huge tutorials and various types of instructions available that make me feel happy to use SPSS as a statistical software in my research.
Resources:
There are
various SPSS tutorials available for training SPSS such as university workshops, websites, and
books.
