WEEK 7: Creating Mock Data Thus far in the course, a provided data file has been used to complete the SPSS related assignments. This assignment will provide the opportunity to learn how to create an SPSS data file using the data below. The newly created data file in this activity will be used in the Signature Assignment in Activity 12. Creating this new data file now will allow any adjustments to be made based on mentor suggestions prior to completing the Signature Assignment in Activity 12. George and Mallery (2014) Chapter 3 will be useful in creating this new SPSS data file. In this mock data file there are 50 participants and 6 variables: Variable column 1: Gender 1=male, 2=female Variable column 2: overall grade point average (gpa) based on a 4 point system Variable column 3: major gpa based on a 4 point system Variable column 4; Graduate Record Exam (GRE) in major Variable column 5; GRE quantitative Variable column 6: GRE verbal Variable column 7: Preparation Approach ********************************************************************************** 2 3.65 3.85 650 750 640 1 1 3.62 3.82 640 740 630 1 1 3.68 3.88 660 760 650 1 1 3.59 3.79 630 750 620 1 1 3.71 3.91 670 740 660 1 2 3.65 3.85 620 760 610 1 1 3.62 3.82 680 750 670 1 1 3.68 3.88 610 740 600 1 1 3.59 3.89 690 760 680 1 1 3.71 3.59 600 720 590 1 2 3.56 3.76 700 770 690 2 1 3.74 3.94 590 720 580 2 1 3.53 3.73 710 780 700 2 2 3.77 3.97 580 710 570 2 2 3.49 3.69 720 770 710 2 1 3.81 4.00 570 700 560 2 1 3.46 3.66 730 780 720 2 1 3.84 4.00 560 680 550 2 1 3.43 3.63 740 770 730 2 2 3.87 4.00 550 650 540 2 2 3.40 3.60 750 740 740 3 1 3.91 4.00 540 680 530 3 1 1 1 1 2 2 1 1 2 2 1 1 2 1 2 1 1 2 2 1 1 1 1 2 2 1 1 2 3.37 3.94 3.34 3.35 3.38 3.32 3.41 3.28 3.44 3.25 3.47 3.22 3.51 3.19 3.54 3.16 3.57 3.13 3.60 3.10 3.63 3.00 3.71 2.90 3.81 2.80 3.91 3.86 3.57 4.00 3.54 3.75 3.78 3.72 3.81 3.68 3.84 3.65 3.87 3.62 3.81 3.59 3.94 3.56 3.97 3.53 4.00 3.50 4.00 3.40 4.00 3.30 4.00 3.20 4.00 4.00 760 530 790 630 660 660 670 650 670 650 680 630 690 620 700 610 710 600 720 590 730 580 750 560 760 530 770 520 720 730 640 650 640 650 660 650 640 630 670 620 680 610 690 600 700 590 710 570 680 550 730 580 630 670 560 600 750 520 780 600 630 630 640 620 640 620 650 600 660 590 670 580 680 570 690 560 700 550 720 530 730 470 740 490 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 Once the data have been entered into a SPSS file, save the file with the following file name: Your last name, initial of your first name, Mock Data.sav For example: AdamsHMockData.sav Upload the new SPSS data file for mentor feedback
