I am struggling to do my statistics assignment because the SPSS program is so complicated for me. The assignment is about Frequency Distributions

SPSS Week 2: Frequency Distributions

Imagine a researcher is interested in examining the psychological impact of principals' perceived conflict management style on teachers' productivity.In this case, the researcher is interested in the relationships among teachers' self-esteem, how teachers perceive their principals' conflict management style, and teachers' productivity.The researcher decides to use a convenience sample of 40 teachers.These teachers completed a survey including a number of demographic questions as well as measures to assess perceived principals' conflict management style, teacher's self-esteem, and productivity.Below are the demographic questions and participants' responses.Use these data to complete the questions below (these data have already been entered in an SPSS file, the teachersurvey.sav file included in the weekly resources).

NOTE: Not all of the variables in the teachersurvey.sav SPSS data file will be used for this assignment.

What is your gender (M = male, F = female)?

What is your age (in years)?

How long have you been teaching (in years) "Experience?"

What topic do you teach (M = math, S = science, A = art, FL = foreign language) "Topic?"

In this SPSS assignment, you will increase your understanding of frequency distributions as well as their value when interpreting data. Complete the following steps and include your responses in this worksheet to submit to your professor:

1.Create two bar charts: one bar chart with gender in the x-axis and one bar chart with topic taught on the x-axis.

2.Create two frequency distributions in SPSS for gender and topic taught.Describe the sample fully using APA format where appropriate.What percentage of the sample is male, female?What percentage teaches math, science, art, and a foreign language?

3.For age and years teaching ("experience"), create two frequency distribution tables (one for age and one for experience).

a. Describe the shape of the frequency distributions.

b. Differentiate between the frequency, percent, valid percent, and cumulative percent columns.

c. How might the experience variable be grouped to provide a more meaningful distribution?

4.What initial conclusions about the sample data can be made from an examination of the frequency distributions?
