Questionnaire for my study

SPSS, what fun.

Spent many hours on that thing looking at data sets for papers.

and put in an SPSS file

Oh my, there's a term I haven't heard in years. My sympathy to you. ;-)

That bad, huh? :D
This will be my second time in using the program. First time round was just the basics, frequencies, means, SD, ANOVA.
And now its compare means, Cronbach's alpha, etc...
(I hope these names won't cause traumatic flashbacks :) )

Yeah, so I've just barely scratched the surface of what the program can do and am still coming to grips with the basics.
I guess I have yet to discover why you guys feel the way you do about SPSS.
 
Actually, I did rather enjoy using SPSS. To see if there truly is a correlation in your data set and all the interpretation that goes into it. Kinda fun to me.

It's just those late hours I spent entering my data sets, the looming deadlines, then writing a paper around my findings that I didn't enjoy.

Ha, you're describing exactly what I'm doing right now. :)
Dealine is monday 31st, though I'll try and do it by tomorrow the 28th. Looking forward to doing the tests and proving the theory (or not). But dreading writing the report with all its specific little rules.
 
Alrighty, I'm done with the survey.
I'd like to thank those who contributed, who obviously cannot be named. :)

And for those of you who find it interesting, here's what I found, based a small sample of only 25 people. Because there were so few, one can't really base anything on it, but I think it is at the very least somewhat interesting.

The more safely attached people believed themselves to be, the more extravert they believed themselves to be.
Safely attached people were the most extravert. Avoidantly attached people were a bit less extravert. And ambiguously attached people were significantly less extravert (ie more introverted).

And as for the influence of gender on this relationship. I wasn't able to conclude anything, because my sample was very uneven: 7 men and 18 women.
There did seem to be a difference, but because so few men participated (only 7), it was statistically an insignificant finding.

Well, thanks again for you help.
Now lets just hope the lecturer approves. ;)
