What is SPSS?
SPSS (or IBM SPSS Statistics, officially) is a statistical software package from IBM that is considered to be fairly user-friendly. It uses an interface similar to Excel and other spreadsheet tools, and so serves as a good next step for users that need access to additional functionality and statistical/data management tools.
