Perhaps it is just an exercise to understand the properties of such methods, useful to convince ourselves of the theoretical appropriateness of it.
:)
BEGIN PROGRAM R.
# read dataset, suppose it is called column x
mydata <- spssdata.GetDataFromSPSS()
fullsample <- mydata$x
median.fullsample <- median(fullsample)
# loop if you want some kind of bootstraping
subsample <- subset( [whatever condition], fullsample)
#
t.test(subsample,mu=median.fullsample)
END PROGRAM.

Subject: testing statistical dfference between medians of a sample and a subsample extracted from the sample
HI all !
In a data analysis I am required to perform a statistical test (parametric) to know the statistical difference(if significant) between median of 2 sample where one is full sample and another is sub sample extracted from the full sample based on a given characteristics (e.g. respondents belonging to certain age group).
Can anyone suggest how togo about it in spss ?
regards
vini
