Hello,
you can get sums by the command that compare "means" in the
"compare means" menu
Analyze > compare means > means .
Of course, if you calculated means you only have to multiply the
mean of a group times the sample size N in this group to get the
sum. You know: mean = sum/N. Hence, sum = mean * N.
But it can also be done by PSPP. If you click on "paste" in the
"compare means" menu, then another window will open which contains
the command:
MEANS TABLES = population
BY AreaRegion .
Then you delete the last full stop and add
/ CELLS = COUNT MEAN STDDEV SUM .
as the last line. The whole command will then look like
MEANS TABLES = population
BY AreaRegion
/ CELLS = COUNT MEAN STDDEV SUM .
You select this whole command and execute it.
If you need training on how to analyze your data with PSPP, then
I recommend you to take a course on data analysis with PSPP or IBM
SPSS Statistics or you can search for PSPP tutorials e.g. on
youtube.
Kind regards,
Dr. Oliver Walter
