- Calculate correlations in SPSS (Analyze>Correlate>Bivariate) for all of the variables. Print out the box of correlations.
- Using only SPSS, how many correlations are significant? Between which two variables is the highest correlation?
- Write up the results for the correlations between socioeconomic status and 8th grade math achievement, teacher interest and 8th grade math achievement, and 8th grade science achievement and 8th grade math achievement
- Out of all the variables for this problem, which is the best predictor of 8th grade math achievement? Why?
- Make an interactive scatterplot (Graphs > Chart Builder > Simple Scatterplot) of the variables socioeconomic status (on the X-axis) and 8th grade math achievement (on the Y-axis). Describe the pattern of data.
- What happens if the range is restricted to only students that score at or above an SES of 20: Go to Data>Select Cases>If condition is satisfied. Move SES from the left-hand box to the formula box (using the arrow). Then put 20, so that the selection looks like this: SES >= 20. Click continue, then OK. This should select only those SES scores at or above 20.
- Find the correlation between SES and 8th grade math achievement the same way as before (Analyze>Correlate>Bivariate) for just these two variables. (Notice that N will now equal 172). Print out this box of correlations. Also make a new scatterplot.
- What is the correlation now? Why is it different from before?
Output should include 2 correlation boxes and two scatterplots. The N for SES and 8th grade math achievement should be 399 (before the restriction of range).
