The Explore procedure is a very useful procedure for visually and numerically comparing groups, summarizing distributions, examining the assumption of normality, and looking for outlying observations. It is easy to assume without looking that your data have no outliers, extreme values, or distributional problems. Fortunately, the Explore procedure makes it just as easy to see how well the data validate those assumptions.

  • If your dependent variable is categorical, try the Crosstabs procedure.
  • Other procedures allow you to layer grouping variables so that you can examine summary statistics for cross-classifications of factors. See the topic The Summarize Procedure for more information. See the topic The Means Procedure for more information. See the topic The OLAP Cubes Procedure for more information.
