Runs Test Options

Statistics. You can choose one or both summary statistics.

  • Descriptive. Displays the mean, standard deviation, minimum, maximum, and number of nonmissing cases.
  • Quartiles. Displays values corresponding to the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles.

Missing Values. Controls the treatment of missing values.

  • Exclude cases test-by-test. When several tests are specified, each test is evaluated separately for missing values.
  • Exclude cases listwise. Cases with missing values for any variable are excluded from all analyses.
