Welcome to the April 20th, 2021 SPSS Alternatives workshop, by Shawn N Fraser, PhD.

Description

IBM SPSS has become a standard statistics analysis package across many disciplines due to its relatively easy to use graphical user interface (GUI). However, many user-friendly and powerful statistics software packages have emerged over the last decade that are free to use. Part 1 of this workshop will introduce you to several free to use software packages that can be used as SPSS alternatives including an SPSS clone with a very similar GUI. Other modern and dynamic statistical analysis software packages will also be introduced.
