• By default, MEANS displays means, standard deviations, and number of cases.<br />

Subcommand Order<br />

MEANS 981<br />

The table list must be first if the keyword TABLES is omitted. If the keyword TABLES is<br />

explicitly used, subcommands can be specified in any order.<br />

Operations<br />

• MEANS displays the number and percentage of the processed and missing cases in the<br />

Case Process Summary table.<br />

• MEANS displays univariate statistics for the population as a whole and for each value of<br />

each successive control variable defined by the BY keyword on the TABLE subcommand<br />

in the Group Statistics table.<br />

• ANOVA and linearity statistics, if requested, are displayed in the ANOVA and Measures<br />

of Association tables.<br />

• If a control variable is a long string, only the short-string portion is used to identify groups<br />

in the analysis.<br />

• If a string variable is specified as a dependent variable on any table lists, the MEANS<br />

procedure produces limited statistics (COUNT, FIRST, and LAST).<br />

Limitations<br />

Example<br />

Example<br />

• Maximum 200 variables total per MEANS command.<br />

• Maximum 250 tables.<br />

MEANS TABLES=V1 TO V5 BY GROUP<br />

/STATISTICS=ANOVA.<br />

• TABLES specifies that V1 through V5 are the dependent variables. GROUP is the control<br />

variable.<br />

• Assuming that variables V2, V3, and V4 lie between V1 and V5 in the working data file,<br />

five tables are produced: V1 by GROUP, V2 by GROUP, V3 by GROUP, and so on.<br />

• STATISTICS requests one-way analysis-of-variance tables of V1 through V5 by GROUP.<br />

MEANS VARA BY VARB BY VARC/V1 V2 BY V3 V4 BY V5.<br />

• This command contains two TABLES subcommands that omit the optional TABLES<br />

keyword.
