SPSS INSTRUCTIONS FOR RUNNING CROSSTABS & CORRELATIONS: CROSSTABS: CROSSTABS ARE FOR NOMINALLY SCALED VARIABLES, I.E.

. CATEGORICAL. NUMBER OF CATEGORIES IN THE TWO VARIABLES BEING TABBED SHOULD NOT HAVE A PRODUCT GREATER THAN 16, I.E. VARIBLE ONE HAS 4 CATEGORIES, VARIABLE TWO HAS 4 CATEGORIES: 4x4 = 16. !"#.
