Dear friend
Simply create codes for each answer. Employees can select more than one question? If matterin order to create a flag that bears marking or not marking each of the propositions.

You need to divide this up into a number of subquestions for each symptom, and then use the three choices as a response for each symptom.

This is a series of questions even though it may be
numbered of questions of the data gathering form.
you would have a variable for each possible response. You would need multiple dichotomies _if_ the person could answer e.g., both before and after starting shift work. that would give number of conditions times three dichotomous variables. If the responses categories are necessarily exclusive (you might add a "Both" response if that is relevant), then you would have as many variables as there are conditions with one value from the list of responses. if you have not yet done the data gathering, think about rephrasing about asking something like frequency before and after. You might put a time limit on the "before" question, e.g., month or two months. Art Kendall Social Research Consultants On 10/28/2011 7:13 AM, Ayman wrote:

Since your instructions did not say to tick only 1
per row, you may need to have columns for each variable
"backaches_before" to "Sprains_never".
that would be 33 dichotomous variables. If you have few enough forms that you can edit before data entry then you could have a new category "both" value labels backaches to sprains 1 'Both' 2 'before' 3 'after' 4 'never'. If you used an online system that only allowed one per row of the matrix question or visually scanning tells you that nobody answered both before and after value labels backaches to sprains 1'before' 2 'after' 3 'never'.

How big will your sample be? Have you done the survey yet?
If it's only a small scale study you have time to change the questionnaire like Art suggested. You need an extra box for each item, eg: Never Before only After only Both before and after 0 1 2 3 You can worry about SPSS later, but if you don't collect the data in the way you need, SPSS won't recover it for you. Can you design a data capture instrument like the ones on my website? I used a short questionnaire at the beginning of a course which asked fro previous experience of computing, statistics etc and also replicated a few questions from a data set to be used on the course. These are right at the beginning of Block1: From questionnaire to SPSS saved file. There's a complete course in using SPSS to capture, manage and analyse data from questionnaire surveys: it's aimed precisely at people like yourself. Get back to me if you need any further help.

OK, but all may not be lost if people have ticked more than one box on each
line. You'll need a coding scheme which takes my previous advice into account and a transfer sheet or a lot of patience to enter the data. If you send me a copy of your full questionnaire I can help you more, but have a look at the pre-course questionnaire and data transfer sheet on my website to give you some idea of what you might need. http://surveyresearch.weebly.com/uploads/2/9/9/8/2998485/1.1.1_pre-course_qu estionnaire_on_interests_and_skills.pdf http://surveyresearch.weebly.com/uploads/2/9/9/8/2998485/1.2.1_transfer_shee t_for_data_from_your_questionnaires.pdf I've dealt with hundreds of students and clients in your position and the sooner you seek detailed help the better. I can advise you, but I won't do the work for you.

60 is no big deal for you to do manually. Send me the questionnaire
instrument as an attachment and I'll see what I can do for you in the way of a transfer sheet for direct entry to SPSS. -----Original Message----- From: SPSSX(r) Discussion [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Ayman Sent: 28 October 2011 22:28 To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: i need help in Analyzing with SPSS yes Mr.John F Hall , the i have already done the survey and i have the data, the sample size is not big its only 60 samples, all i can do now is to analyze the data sir , and im stuck with this question -- View this message in context: http://spssx-discussion.1045642.n5.nabble.com/i-need-help-in-Analyzing-with- SPSS-tp4945654p4947230.html Sent from the SPSSX Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ===================== To manage your subscription to SPSSX-L, send a message to [hidden email] (not to SPSSX-L), with no body text except the command.

You may not be able to modify the questions as
asked, but if some people answered both before and after you can
use values for your variables that take that into account.
How to take those kinds of answers into account depends on the medium your data is recorded on and how many respondents you have. How was the data recorded? How many respondents do you have You could have all of the data entered with 11 variables with valid 4 response values and a value indicating missing. (be sure that you have the data keyed twice or have it keyed once had have it proofread.)

dear Mr.John F Hall
below is a brief explanation of my methodology to analyze This is how i was thinking to analyze the questionnaire;i will divide the questions in two groups Group 1 will be factors of effects - Health - Social - Sleep Group 2 will be factors of shift work - Age - Work load - Working hours - And since when he is doing shift work First to do is to analyze each group by itself and come up with numbers, doing reliability test and all with SPSS. The next thing i was thinking to do is to do multi regression test and correlations test again with SPSS if possible the other sections like YOUR ROSTER, OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY HAZARDS and GENERAL COMMENTS are for other purposes or either demographic fata and yes sir i understand , and im not here to give my work for someone else to do, what i aim is to find the best way to analyze this questionnaire and came with somthing valuable and real and your valuable advice is important for me sir Final_Draft_Of_The_SurveyWITH.docx SPSS file effects, Q13 and Q28 EFFECTS.sav Q13.sav Q28.sav |

yes Mr.Art Kendall all subjects did tick only one for each symptoms and none did tick both before and after

I am new user for the PASW text analytics and I am looking for a visual guide (video) or professional tutorials on how to use text mining of the PASW textanalytics in the SPSS PASW modeler 13 to supplement some of the basic procedures that are used, how to create my own templates and resources andmanage the concepts extraction process. Please, kindly let me know if you have some leads or sources as I am urgently need them, especially that the software help does not assess me with the in-depth level I need.
