I spent the last seven hours troubleshooting SPSS syntax files. I finally got them all recoded and merged into one megafile of almost 400K respondents from 15 multinational surveys between 1985 and 2004.
[Finally got that one file to work, though I’m not sure how. I removed all blank spaces in the file and coded all variables as scaler, and then it worked. Thanks Chris!]
Now, I’m back home with three new Buffy DVDs from Netflix (Discs 2-4 from Season 6) and a chocolate frosty from Wendy’s. I’m ready for what Brian called a “Stats Party”! Let the fun begin!
We political scientists really know how to party…
I was up until sunrise, and even sadder, it’s the latest I’ve stayed up in about 7 years.
spss is a four letter word
