FORMAT Subcommand (MULT RESPONSE command)
FORMAT
controls
table formats. The minimum specification on FORMAT
is a single keyword.
Labels are controlled by two keywords:
LABELS. Display value labels in frequency tables and crosstabulations. This is the default.
NOLABELS. Suppress value labels in frequency tables and crosstabulations for multiple-response variables and individual variables. You cannot suppress the display of variable labels used as value labels for multiple-dichotomy groups.
The following keywords apply to the format of frequency tables:
DOUBLE. Double spacing
for frequency tables. By default, MULT RESPONSE
uses single spacing.
TABLE. One-column
format for frequency tables. This is the default if you
omit the FORMAT
subcommand.
CONDENSE. Condensed format for frequency tables. This option uses a three-column condensed format for frequency tables for all multiple-response groups and individual variables. Labels are suppressed. This option does not apply to multiple-dichotomy groups.
ONEPAGE. Conditional condensed format for frequency tables. Three-column condensed format is used if the resulting table would not fit on a page. This option does not apply to multiple-dichotomy groups.
Example
MULT RESPONSE GROUPS=PROBS 'NATIONAL PROBLEMS MENTIONED'
(PROB1 TO PROB3 (1,9))/VARIABLES=EDUC (1,3)
/FREQUENCIES=EDUC PROBS
/FORMAT=CONDENSE.
- The
FORMAT
subcommand specifies condensed format, which eliminates category labels and displays the categories in three parallel sets of columns, each set containing one or more rows of categories (rather than displaying one set of columns aligned vertically down the page).
