Can SPSS Bootstrap sample groups of cases

Question & Answer


Question

I am applying Bootstrapping to several SPSS Statistics procedures. The cases in my data set belong to groups as designated by the variable GROUP. I would like the bootstrapping procedure to sample groups, rather than individual cases. So all or none of the cases in a group would be sampled in a draw and the following analysis would be performed at the case level. Is this possible in the SPSS Statistics Bootstrapping procedure?
