Re: trouble-shoot, help!

[Andrew Neuwirth]

Hello,

 

I am attempting to transform a variable to get a predicted value (Y0=B0+B1X1...etc).  I input the formula correctly into the the 'transform variable' function and the out-put is:

 

>Error #1400.  Command name: EXECUTE

>Input error when reading a case.

 

----Does this mean there is something wrong with my variable entry?  I am using the 21-day trial package b.c I am no longer at my university (where we use version 16.0).  Thank you for your help.

Hello,

 

Before several days I asked for your help if somebody knows " if there any procedure or other way to calculate serial correlation" . Unfortunately nobody could help. It has two other names for it. Maybe now I will be luckier: FIRST ORDER SERIAL CORRELATION OR, AUTOCORRELATION.

Maybe somebody knows?
I would appreciate any help

Googling a bit for you (did you try before asking?), I found this
interesting link (a javascript applet to compute first time serial
correlation):

If you search the Help index in SPSS/PASW Statistics for autocorrelation, you will find many references.

An answer to this question could be found in a statistics text book such as Neter et al Applied Linear Statistical Models. The Cochrane-Orcutt procedure is one of the suggested methods to deal with autocorrelation. The D-W test will tell you whether autocorrelation is a problem in your estimation.

What procedure did you use to get the formula?
Are you trying to get the predicted value for all cases Or only for
particular values of the Xs?
Did you paste the syntax?

Did you try any procedure e.g., MEANS on the data prior to the data
transformation?

Is the data in raw form or in a system file?
