Data screening & Descriptives • Both are unique in that no lecture and no write-up • Data Screening • check if data entered correctly • check for missing values • check for outliers • check for normality • Descriptives • How to describe continuous and categorical variables • Then other relevant skills.. • Creating composites (averaging items together) • Reverse coding items (so all items in same direction) • Using items with different scale ranges (e.g., 1-11, 0-100, etc) • Using syntax • Transforming continuous variables into categorical • Creating new variables based upon the combo of two or more other variables.
