Foreword

This book is ideal for students and researchers who are new to SPSS and need a quick and easy guide in conducting linear regression analysis using the software. SPSS is a very powerful tool that aids in the analysis of research data. The book not only provides a step by step procedure in analyzing data using SPSS but also give insights on how to interpret results and incorporate the analysis into a research manuscript or report. This guide is helpful to students and researchers who are conducting investigations in the field of education, psychology, sociology, engineering etc.

The approach adopted in this book is straightforward where the reader is taught on how to conduct linear regression analysis, interpret the results and present the analysis in a research manuscript. Although some basic statistical concepts were presented in this book, I recommend that a user of this book should have a basic knowledge in statistics.
