There are plenty of meaningful SPSS data sets and study descriptions to go with them at

You can get to it here: http://www.amstat.org/publications/jse/jse_data_archive.htm. There is typically a .txt or .csv file of a data set, along with a documentation file. Each data set comes from an article from the JSE Data Sets and Stories department. Not all data sets will be relevant, and, unfortunately, they are not currently organized in the best way. Right now, the data sets are organized by file name. We are trying to work now on a better organization of that page, with better search capabilities, but what is there now might be enough to get you started, or give you some ideas.

The prof from whom I inherited the class no longer does these even though they were shown on the syllabus as a major portion of the credit earned for the term. He could not supply them to me...I had already distributed the syllabus when he informed me of this...and after weighing out my choices decided that I did not want to revise the syllabus and re-distribute 40% of the points earned to assignments and exams. Too much additional tension in a course I've only taught 3 times before... Please feel free to contact me off list. If I could find 10-12 data sets in Excel/CSV or SPSS format (with coding guides) I would be so grateful. I've found repositories online but these are often vast and do not include codebooks. Thanks and best of luck to all in AY2013-2014 Nancy Melucci Long Beach City College et alia --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.
