Can someone send me information on how to register on TIPS. I lost mine and want to 
pass it on to a colleague.

Hi All-

I need a bit of help from those familiar with SPSS. I have just started  using the 
student version of SPSS 11 and I'm encountering a bit of a  problem. When I compute 
new variables the functions work fine. However,  If I then go back and change the raw 
data underlying the computed  variables I find that the computed scores don't change. 
I have searched  the help file for a "recalculate" command to no avail.  A call to the 
 SPSS help(less) desk put me on hold for 10 minutes & then told me to  leave a 
message. So far, no one has returned my call.  Any solutions  would be greatly 
appreciated.

TIA,

-Don.

I'm not familiar with version 11 (in fact, I think I'm still on roughly  version 8), 
but in earlier versions, computing a new variable has to be  done over if you change 
the raw data. There wasn't any "recalculate".  However, you can "paste" your compute 
command to a command file, save  that file, and simply open and rerun it over each 
time that need to. You  shouldn't need to go through all of the "compute" stuff each 
time.

Without a copy handy- here is a wag- have you tried saving the changes
(under a new name would be most likely to work). Also, did you delete
the data or just "write over it"? Again, just guessing cause I can't
type (fall down go boom) and SPSS is on the other computer. I've seen
those same problems with Excel files and ones generated with Macromedia
products as well. Good Luck. Tim

    In Excel when you enter a formula to calculate a value, you're  putting that 
formula itself into the file, and so it is saved with the  file. In SPSS (again, 
unless there have been some basic recent changes  in later versions...) that is not 
true. When you do a Compute you're  simply running a program one time to change the 
data in the data file.  The formula you use to compute the new values is not part of 
that data  file, and unless you save it separately as a Command file, you will have  
lost that formula and need to reenter it again if you want to change  data that you 
add later to the data file. Despite the surface  similarity, an SPSS datafile is not a 
spreadsheet - the cells contain  data, and only data.

Subject: follow-up on stress scale
From: "Hetzel, Rod" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2003 14:07:17 -0500
X-Message-Number: 5

Hi everyone:

Thanks so much for all of the useful feedback about measuring college
student stress.  I did have one follow-up question...Someone had sent me
a .pdf file with an instrument called the "College Student's Stressful
Events Checklist."  This instrument was taken from Chapter 7 of a book
or a chapter called Wellness.  If you sent this to me, would you please
send me the reference for the text in which the scale appeared?  I can't
remember who sent this to me, so I'm sending it to the whole list.
Thanks!  

Rod

Hi, TIPS,

I understand most of the perceptual illusions, and maybe I'm just having
a brain lapse, but I just can't seem to come up with the explanation of
the illusion at the link above. There are two concentric circles made of
small diamond shapes, with light and dark shadows on one edge of the
diamonds in the inner circle and on the opposite edge of the diamonds
making the outer circle. When you move your head back and forth, the
circles appear to move in opposite directions. I've looked through past
TIPS emails but I don't see anything other than Jim Matiya mentioning a
similar illusion to Ron Blue. I'd look it up in PsycInfo but I don't
know what to call it. Could you please explain it or point me to an
explanation? Thanks.

Nathalie

Subject: Doll  play data request
From: "Stephen Black" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Wed, 01 Oct 2003 16:05:24 -0500
X-Message-Number: 7

I have a student planning an experiment involving doll play in girls. 
She'd like to locate normative data and other information about this 
topic from the literature (e.g. how does doll play vary with age?). 
But when she searches PsycLIT all she comes up with are endless 
papers on play therapy.

Does anyone have any leads for her to articles or textbook 
discussions of doll play in girls? Judging from my own daughters when 
they were young, doll play is a major activity of the pre-teen, and I 
can't imagine that there aren't at least a few studies of it.   Any 
help will be appreciated. But remember, her interest is in normative 
doll play, not as a function of sexual abuse or other abnormal 
circumstance or as therapy. She just wants to know about normal kids 
playing with their Barbies (who's not so normal, of course, but I'll 
let that pass). 

Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Have your student check out the site below.  Perhaps your student might
include a mention of how doll playing may have changed historically...

Some other thoughts:

1.  The book Forever Barbie, by M.G. Lord has some possibilities.  This  is a book 
about what Barbie means in our culture.  Just perusing my  copy, I found references on 
pp. 77 (little girls' fascination with "hair  play," which engendered "Totally Hair 
Barbie"), p. 80 (humorous accounts  of girls' - and occasional boys' - creative play 
with Barbie dolls).

2.  Below is a rather humorous description of a game noted by Susan  Stern when she 
was playing Barbie with her daughter, Nora.  Nora had  invented a Barbie scenario 
called, "Jealous Barbie."  Stern is the  creator of "Barbie Nation" - a documentary 
with a decidedly feminist  leaning. It's from a review of "Barbie Nation" in Women's 
Studies  Quarterly Volume III Numbers 1 & 2 Spring/Summer 2002:
In Jealous Barbie, Nora insisted we play that her Barbie had everything  better than 
mine - better hair, better boyfriend, better imaginary car -  and my Barbie was 
jealous. My Barbie was jealous for hours on end.  Amused and intrigued, I gave Nora 
what I have come to call "Feminist  Lecture #205: Women Don't Have to Be Jealous of 
Other Women." Nora  listened to me patiently. "Okay, Mom," she finally said. "How 
about we  first play Jealous Barbie - and then we can play what you want to play?"



Hope this helps.

This is a stab in the dark, I hope someone else really "knows" the answer!

I think you are correct in looking at what Ron would have to say because I bet 
it has to do with opponent processing in the ganglion cells of the retina--as 
you move closer and further from the monitor you stimulate adjacent black/white 
opponent process receptor complexes and so you get the sense of movement--the 
fact that the diamonds slant in a particular direction as defined by black and 
white edges in opposing sides also helps to strengthen the direction of 
movement in opposite dircitons. I would guess that the black and white edges of 
these diamonds would even more strongly strengthen the opponent processing and 
if the diamonds were just gray and without those edges it would not work--for 
the inner circle bottom and right edges; for the outer circle bottom and left 
edges are white; for the inner circle top and left edges are black and for the 
outer circle top and right edges are black.

Well, anyone else?

Annette

X-Message-Number: 11

I should have good answers for both of these questions but I feel I
could use some help.  I always get the questions about why some have
recurring dreams.  I think classical conditioning may be involved.  I
would like to hear your ideas on this.  A new question came up for me
this week.  A student asked if a person in a coma dreams.  I imagine
that people in comas still go into REM but, I'd like to hear from you on
this one too.

Thank you,
