Thanks for your Help

seen NPTESTS, and the FRIEDMAN specification in Reliability.

IIRC, but I do not have my books at hand, if the data is in ranks (not just ranked values or ordinal)
Cronbach's alpha is the same.

Can anyone explain how to calc Kendall's W is spss v20. In earlier versions it worked fine but in v20 I cannot get it to show the computed value of W - all it shows is the sig of a null hypothesis test. Why won't it show the value for W?

Any help appreciated.

Looks like you need to double click on what appears to be a dumbed down version of a fisher price toy statistics for dummies real stats real easy we'll even write your results section .... table.
Inside you'll find more toys (including the value of the test statistics -as if anyone cares about that?-).
Hmmm, Model viewer??? One stop forward two steps back!

Bear in mind that besides exploring the model viewer output, you can use Analyze > Nonparametric Tests >Legacy Dialogs > K Related Samples to get the traditional output.
