NOUNIVARIATE Subcommand (MVA command)

By default, MVA computes univariate statistics for each variable—the number of cases with nonmissing values, the mean, the standard deviation, the number and percentage of missing values, and the counts of extreme low and high values. (Means, standard deviations, and extreme value counts are not reported for categorical variables.)

  • To suppress the univariate statistics, specify NOUNIVARIATE.

Examples

MVA VARIABLES=populatn density urban religion lifeexpf region
  /CATEGORICAL=region
  /CROSSTAB PERCENT=0.
  • Univariate statistics (number of cases, means, and standard deviations) are displayed for populatn, density, urban, and lifeexpf. Also, the number of cases, counts and percentages of missing values, and counts of extreme high and low values are displayed.
  • The total number of cases and counts and percentages of missing values are displayed for region and religion (a string variable).
  • Separate crosstabulations are displayed for region and religion.
    MVA VARIABLES=populatn density urban religion lifeexpf region
      /CATEGORICAL=region.
      /NOUNIVARIATE
      /CROSSTAB PERCENT=0.
  • Only crosstabulations are displayed (no univariate statistics).
