For students, researchers and data analysts who don't have a strong statistical background (or any statistical background), this course teaches you statistical data analysis, interpretation, and APA reporting in a simple, practical approach.

Alexander Mtembenuzeni takes the same simple explanations approach he took with the "Learn SPSS in 15 minutes" video on YouTube (now with over 1.9 million views and so many great comments) and used it to create this course.

The goal of this course is to get you to complete your research project without the need to go through complicated theories!

The course takes you from absolute beginner of SPSS and statistics with lessons such as getting familiar with the SPSS interface, creating variables, entering data, and running, interpreting and reporting basic analyses. From there, you will be introduced to inferential tests and hypothesis testing with statistics such as t-tests, ANOVA and linear regressions.

The course covers:

• Data entry, data importing and preparation

• Summarizing data using descriptive statistics

• Exploring relationships between different types of variables

• Choosing appropriate charts and developing them

• Transforming variables and managing the data to suit your analyses

• Choosing the appropriate inferential tests such as chi-square, t-tests and regression and running them

• How to interpret all the statistics presented in the course

• And how to write your results in your reports, dissertations, or thesis using the APA format
