Re: Choosing highest value of a variable for each id

Jim Marks
Is your data long (3 records with FEV1 for each id)? Please provide sample data.

Re: Choosing highest value of a variable for each id

Jon Peck
You can do this with AGGREGATE,


AGGREGATE
  /OUTFILE=* MODE=ADDVARIABLES
  /BREAK=id
  /FEV1_MAX=MAX(FEV1).

Use command AGGREGATE, e.g.

AGGREGATE OUTFILE * MODE = ADDVARIABLES
/BREAK id
/Fev1_best = MAX(Fev1).

Re: Choosing highest value of a variable for each id

In reply to this post by Jim Marks
The less trivial question is how to add a bunch of variables
to all records, picking those from the record where FEV1 is
the maximum.

For that, you  can presort on FEV1 using Descending order,
instead of the default Ascending.  Then use Aggregate
(Presorted) to pick up the FIRST( ) for each of the other vars.
And the AddVars option, to keep all the records.

Hi,

I have two variables; FEV1 and id. The FEV1 variable is numeric (5.45, 3.28
etc.) and contains three measurements per id. Does anyone have ideas for a
syntax that creates a variable "FEV1_best" that contains the highest
measurement of FEV1 for each id?

I'm using SPSS 25.

Why not just use MAX in AGGREGATE?

Re: Choosing highest value of a variable for each id

Rich Ulrich
MAX in Aggregate will pick up the max for each of the
vars, separately.  Trivial, read the fine manual.  I was
describing the problem of picking up all variables from
that one particular record where FEV1 was max.
