,Types of Analyses
Independent t-test
Analyze > Compare Means > Independent-Samples T-Test -> Put in DV and IV -> click
“Define Groups” -> specify groups (values) that should be compared (e.g. 0 = "Non-athlete",
1 = "Athlete"), type “0” in the first text box, and “1” in the second text box)
Test Variable: dependent variable
Group Variable: independent variable
, Paired-Samples t-test
Analyze > Compare Means > Paired-Samples T Test
Pair: The “Pair” column represents the number of Paired Samples t Tests to run. You may
choose to run multiple Paired Samples t Tests simultaneously by selecting multiple sets of
matched variables. Each new pair will appear on a new line.
Variable1: The first variable, representing the first group of matched values. Move the
variable that represents the first group to the right where it will be listed beneath the
“Variable1” column.
Variable2: The second variable, representing the second group of matched values. Move the
variable that represents the second group to the right where it will be listed beneath the
“Variable2” column.
