CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
According to Achiagha (1995), practical knowledge is learning without which mastery of an
area of knowledge may be too difficult to achieve. Practical knowledge involves developing
skills through the use of tools or equipment to perform tasks that are related to a field of
study. Such skills enable one to harness the available resources to meet needs of society. It
was to this background that SIWES otherwise known as Industrial Training (IT) was
introduced in Nigerian tertiary institutions.

SIWES is a skill development program designed to prepare students of universities,


polytechnics, monotechnics and colleges of education for transition from the college
environment to work (Akerejola 2008). Oyedele (1990) states that work experience is an
educational program in which students participates in work activities while attending school.
This work experience gives students the opportunity to be part of an actual situation outside
classroom. SIWES is a cooperative industrial internship
ernship program
prog that involves institutions of
higher learning, industries, the federal government off Nigeria,
N
Nig
ige Industrial Training Fund (ITF),
Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC), and NBTE/NCCE in Nigeria. Students that
d N
NB
participates in this work experience program
gram includes those studying library sciences,
rog
ogram
engineering, vocational, technological,, other
otther sciences related courses in institutions of higher
othe
learning. SIWES forms part off the
th approved minimum academic standards in these
institutions. Eze (1998) points
ts out
o that the government has recognized the importance of
SIWES through establishment of the Industrial Training Fund (ITF). The ITF was established
in 1971 and was charged with human resource development and training. Following the
establishment of ITF, SIWES was established in 1974.

1.1 Historical Background of SIWES

Prior to the establishment of the scheme, there was growing concern among our
industrialists that graduates of our institutions of higher learning lacked adequate
practical background studies preparatory for employment in industries. Thus, the
employers were of the opinion that theoretical education going on in higher
institutions was not responsive to the need of the employers of labour.

It is upon this background that the rationale for initiating and designing the scheme
by the Industrial Training Fund, during its formative years- 1973/1974- was introduced

!:,;'!<!! $!
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

The ITF solely funded the scheme during its formative years. But as the financial
involvement became unbearable to the fund, it withdrew from the scheme in1978. In
1979, the Federal Government handed the scheme over to both the National
University Commission (NUC) and the National Board for Technical Education
(NBTE). Later the Federal Government in November 1984, reverted the management
and implementation of the SIWES programme to ITF and it was effectively taken
over by the Industrial Training Fund in July 1985 with the funding being solely borne
by the Federal Government.

1.2 Aims and Objectives of SIWES

Aims

SIWES was established with the aim of making education relevant and to bridge the yawning
gap between the theory and practice of engineering, technology, and science-related
disciplines in tertiary institutions in Nigeria.

Objectives

um
mma
mari
The specific objectives of SIWES were summarized by the federal government in its gazette
of April, 1978 as follows:-

? To provide an avenue for students


tuden
dents in institutions of higher learning to acquire industrial
skills and experiences in their
eir courses
c of study.
? To provide students with an opportunity to apply their knowledge in real work and actual
practice.
? To make the transition from school to the world of work easier and to enhance students
contacts for later job placement.
? To expose and prepare students of universities, polytechnics, colleges of technology,
colleges of agriculture and colleges of education to industrial work situation they are
likely to meet after graduation.

Others objectives of SIWES include:


? To expose students to work methods and technique in handling equipment and
machineries that may not be available in the institution.

? To provide students with the opportunity to apply their theoretical knowledge in real
work situation, thereby bridging the gap between the university work and the actual work
practices.

? To expose students to the latest developments and technological innovations their chosen
professions.

1.3 Learning Objectives

Prior to my Industrial Training attachment at National Bureau of Statistics, I evolve these


learning objectives. As a student from the Department of Mathematics, I should be able to:

? Use computational mathematics to solve industry-based related problems


? Devise an end to means to ease effort with maximal efficiency with logical reasoning
and critical thinking

1.4 NBS's profile

dequate
ate, trustable
The presence of dependable, adequate, t and well-timed statistical information is a
fundamental requirement forr the
t implementation, formulation, designing of well-
articulated policies and programme and it is crucial for efficient decision making in
government.

In order to carry out the task of relatively good governance, modern practices in
government have deemed it imperative to establish statistical outfits with the primary
aim of generating comprehensive statistical data to support this role.

In Nigeria for instance, the three tiers of government have statistical departments,
which engage in data collection, processing and analytical generation activities to support
the complex function of governance. At the apex of these statistical departments is the
National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

!:,;'!<!! &!
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

1.4.1 Historical Background of the NBS


The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) is the new name for the Federal Office of
Statistics (FOS). It was established in 1947. It is the federal agency which is charged
with the responsibility to collect, analyze and publish information relating to
commercial, industrial, agricultural activities and the condition of inhabitants of
Nigeria. Since its creation, the FOS has undergone series of structural changes, of
which was effective from April 1993, when FOS was given an autonomous status
with a DIRECTOR GENERAL as the head and chief executive. To be able to
discharge its functions effectively, the FOS was also structured to eight departments
and five units (which are still operational till date).

The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) came into being with the merger of the Federal
Office of Statistics (FOS) and the National Data Bank (NDB). The creation was part of the
implementation of the Statistical Master Plan (SMP), a programme document of the Federal
ive the
Government of Nigeria (FGN). The merger was to give the agency
a a national outlook as the
apex statistical agency for all the three tiers of Government.
oveernm NBS is expected to coordinate
Statistical Operations of the National Statistical
ical System in the production of Official
Statistics in all the Federal Ministries, Departments
Departme
partme and Agencies (MDAs), State Statistical
Agencies (SSAs) and Local Government
ment Councils (LGCs) Nigeria operates Federal System
entt C
Co
of government with 36 States and Fede
Federal
edera Capital Territory and 774 Local Government Areas
(LGAs). At the federal level,
l, each Ministry, Department and Agency has Director of
Statistics. Each state has Director of Statistics and Head of statistics Unit at Local
Government Areas. All these including Statistical Institutes constitute the Nigeria National
Statistical System (NSS). The Internal Organisation of the bureau is built on Statistics Act of
2007 which is the Legal Instrument established by the Acts of Parliament.

1.4.2 Board
The governing board of the bureau comprises of 15 members:
@ 6 Political members from each of the six geo-political zone of the country appointed by
the President and approved and confirmed by the senate.
@ 9 Institutional members. The members are:
! The Minister of National Planning Commission or his Representative

1.4.9 Reform Programme in NBS


The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) came into being with the merger of the Federal
Office of Statistics (FOS) and the National Data Bank (NDB). The creation is part of the
implementation of the Statistical Master Plan (SMP), a programme document of the Federal
Government of Nigeria >XaGB1(3,&(/).4S&L5`0(!"&!-"-5#)L(6-0(*4L/&/(Q7(5,&(J)"ld Bank
in 2003. The implementation is designed to span five years, 2005-2009.
Hitherto, the FOS, which had been the apex data producing agency of Government in Nigeria
since 1947, had failed to meet its mandate of producing adequate, accurate and timely data

performance got to its lowest ebb between 2000 and 2003. Among the reasons for this
appalling state were the poor attention from Government, bad management, a bloated and
low quality workforce, preponderance of non-professional staff (particularly administrative
and accounting personnel), archaic data production and management technologies, and low
morale and productivity of workers. All these manifested
sted in non-production of relevant
statistics for planning and evidence -based policy formulation,
ormu

and evaluation, or, at best, the production of data
taa that

iota of integrity. This situation necessitated the curre
current process of reforms in the NBS.
cu
The broad objective of the reforms in thee NBS
NB is to implement the SMP and also transform

are both managed through the Federal Ministry of Finance. The goal of the entire reform
programme for NBS is to transform the Agency into a world class National Statistical Office
(NSO), which will be able to produce adequate, high quality and timely data relevant to the
demands of users in Government, the universities and research Institutes, private sector
organizations and international agencies. The reform process is in four areas:
@ Infrastructure and Equipment.
@ Human Resources Management and Development.
@ Improved Data Production Methodology.
@ Data Management, Dissemination and Access.
This latest reorganization, which brought the change of the name FOS to NBS is now
in process. The transformation process of NBS as directed by the president started
with the appointment of new STATISTICIAN GENERAL (SG) on the 7th of June,

!:,;'!<!! -!
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

2005. The process is aimed at repositioning the agency as a world-class national


statistics office. Under a Public Private Partnership (PPP) arrangements with
considerable financial support from their development partners, noticeable the World
Bank, United Nation Development Program (UNDP), European Union (EU) and
Department for International Development (DFID) amongst other.

CHAPTER TWO
DATA COLLECTION PROCESSES

2.1 Three Basic Data Collection Procedures in NBS

The regular surveys of NBS can be divided into three broad areas:
(1) National Integrated Survey of Household (NISH). These include:
@ GHS C General Household Survey
@ National Agricultural Sample Survey (NASS) and (NASC) National Agricultural
Sample Census (crops, livestock and fish farming and poultry)
@ Various household based ad-hoc surveys- (MICS) Multiple Indicator Cluster
Survey and (CWIQ) Core Welfare Indicator Questionnaire e.t.c.

(2) National Integrated Survey of Establishment (NISE)


@ Retail Prices Data Collection
@ Quarterly Survey of Establishments
@ Annual Survey of Establishments
@ Various establishment based ad-hoc
hoc survey.
-hoc su

(3) System of Administrative


ve Statistics
S
Stati
atis (SAS)
Administrative data
ta is
i the
tth set of units and data derived from an
administrative source. That is, data generated as the day to day off shoot of
administration of the organization e.g. Immigration office, Custom and
Duties, Road safety, Audited and unaudited Account of Corporation e.t.c.

2.2 System of Administrative Statistics (SAS)

This is a form of desk research system of data collection. These are data that are already
collected by other agencies e.g department of customs and excise, state ministries of labour
and productivity, immigration office, cinema houses and office of auditor general etc.

2.2.1 Types of Data in SAS


@ Motor Vehicle Statistics: Are being Collected from the Road. Road Safety/Vehicle
Inspection Office
@ Fire outbreak data: Are being collected from State Fire Department

!:,;'!<!!! $&
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

@ Stoppages of work due to industrial dispute data are collected from Federal Ministries
of Labour and Productivity
@ Audited or un-audited account of Corporations: Such information is collected from
BCOS, NTA, Housing Corporation and States accountant Generals Office or Auditor
general office.
@ Cinema Analysis: Data are collected from cinema houses e.g cultural centre, K.S
Motel, Premier Hotel etc.
@ Driving Testing: State Ministry of Work and Transport

2.3 Scrutiny Section/Editing Department

The scrutiny section serves as the final editing section of the state office. Scrutiny
section distributes materials and serves as a store to the field. These materials, such
as forms, compass and manuals, are distributed through the field officers. Although
wil
ill in
editing starts from the field by interviewer who will i turn submit the completed
iting
ing before final submission to the
questionnaires to the supervisor for further editing
scrutiny department.

Editing: This is an error detecting and correcting


orrectin technique. To do this job effectively, we
rrect
need to have a work plan or guide
idee line
line in the form of edit rules or specifications.
lin
Editing is used to evaluate thee quality
qual
q ali of work done by the interviewer/enumerator and
they are:

@ Spot Checks and


@ Skim-checking.

Spot Check: This simply means reassessing the statistical units at selected intervals to
compare with already collected data. Result of this spot check interview is used to
access the validity of the earlier information obtained by the enumerator. Spot-
checks exercise detect error by type and magnitude, and it serves as both
correcting and training instruments. It also keeps enumerators at alert and hence
improves the quality of the data collected. In this case there is need for the selection to
be randomly carried out, to avoid biased decision.

Skim Checking: This means a thorough check of the retrieved records to identify
inconsistencies, omission, double entries, arithmetic error, transcription error, etc. In

!:,;'!<!!! $(
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

other words, this means editing the retrieved documents using some editing
specifications or manual. This can be applied at various stages and could either be
on randomly selected bases (sample) or complete verification.

Distribution of Materials: The scrutiny section serves as the store to the field. The
materials needed in the field are distributed through the Field Officer.

Timely Retrieval of Records: The scrutiny section knows the movement of records
in the field and when the records are supposed to arrive at the state headquarters.
Therefore, they see to the timely retrieval of records from the field.

Recording and chatting: Types of records retrieved from the field are recorded in
the chart which gives us the true picture of retrieved and those still on the field. The
scrutiny section is the authorized section which checks queries and returns records
back to the field if found faulty.

Dispatching of Records: When the questionnaires


ress are
a checked and are found to be
error free, the scrutiny section will then dispatch
tch tto the computer section through the
patch
zone for further action. All these records had
ad to be dispatched at the appropriate time
to avoid query from the headquarters.

Monthly Progress Report: The


he He
Hea
Head of Scrutiny is expected to give report on
monthly basis to the State offic
ficer
er, who in turn forward a copy with comment to the
officer,
headquarters for validity of the earlier information obtained by the enumerator. In this
case, there is the need for the selection to be randomly carried out to avoid biased decision.

2.3.1 Types of Errors


Errors likely to be detected include:

a) Omission: This means the inability to investigate some attributes of the


respondent, that is, cases in which an entry is required, but none was made.
b) Inconsistency: This is a case where information might not be in consonance
with the previous information given. For example, a household member
classified as a housewife and her sex provided as male while the person
elsewhere present she is currently pregnant.

!:,;'!<!!! $)
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

c) Unreasonable Entry/Wrong Format: Cases in which an entry is beyond


reasonable unit of an item. For example, a woman of 95 years of age is
recorded as currently using contraceptive.
d) Impossible Entry: Instances in which for example, a code 6 appears for marital
status when provision was made for code 1-5.
e) Double Entries: in a multiple-choice question where more than one response
is given instead of one Transcriptional error: Transferring information from field
record to permanent record might lead to this type of error or cases in which
a piece of information is wrongly copied from one part of questionnaires to the
other.

2.3.2 Error Optimization

Error Optimization in a bit to avoid errors includes the following:

@ Proper training of field staff


@ Public enlightenment
@ Carefulness of the interviewer
@ Proper editing of collected information
atio
tion

2.4 Questionnaire Design

estio
As learned at NBS, a good questionnaire should be sub-divided into three parts to include:

Identification: This is the first part of the questionnaire that shows items like the locality,
sector, local government area, etc.

Body: This is the second and main part of the questionnaire that convey the relevant
information/questions/statements about the study under consideration

Attestation: This is the last part of the questionnaire which entails the Interview/Enumerator

National Bureau of Statistics avails me the opportunity to relate with different people from
differ discipline thereby sharpening my social relationship with people.

CHAPTER THREE
NATIONAL INTEGRATED SURVEY OF HOUSEHOLD (N I S H)
General Household Survey (GHS)

3.1 Stages involved in Data Collection Processes

In accordance with the procedures employed by NBS and as learned, the following were the
stages involved in GHS data collection processes:

i). Identification of an E.A.


ii). Demarcating/Updating of an E.A
iii). Listing Exercise
iv). Sample Selection
v). Survey of Household

3.2 Identification of an E.A

Line Map

A Line Map contains full description off locating


loca
loc an Enumerating Area (E.A.). On
getting to the E.A, study the Line Map very
very well.
w It is usually preferable to walk around the
aths
ths to ensure that you are in the correct E.A. On
location i.e. major street or footpaths
mee features
the E.A. map there are some feat
fe such as churches, mosques, houses, rivers,
footpaths, roads, etc. that willl enable
e the enumerator to correctly identify the E.A. An
E.A Starting Point is also usually the Finishing Point (unless there is an obstacle). The
interviewer should indicate on the map where he/she stopped. The important rule for the
enumerator is to proceed clock wisely from the starting point. The enumerated houses
are always to the right hand side of the interviewer. The interviewer should complete
one section of the block before starting the other. However, if the road is very difficult to
travel, the interviewer may need to canvass both side of the road at the same time
but care must be taken.

3.3 Demarcating/Updating of an E.A

Map of an Enumerated Area may sometimes be out of date or they may contain
incorrect information about the E.A. Therefore, correction should be considered as an
important part of the job. Although NBS does not have power to dermacate E.A but NPC C

!:,;'!<!!! $-
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

National Population Commission which formerly form part of former F.O.S as demographic
unit, but was removed by Federal Government in 1972. NPC also collects vital registration
and provide census of Nigeria every 10 years. But an Enumerator must be able to update or
demarcate Enumeration Area, if need be.

3.5 Listing Exercise

3.5.1 Numbering of Structures, Listing of Housing Units and Head of Household


The next stage after identifying E.A. is to list all the structures, housing units and names of
head of households in all the addresses within the enumeration area so as to build an updated
Frame for sample selection. The document used for the listing is called HH listing &
master sample form. It is advisable to follow the definite pattern (clockwise direction)
during this listing exercise in order to ensure accurate coverage.

The features of the LISTING FORM are:

E.A. identification: State, Local Government Area, Sector, Town/ Village, E.A name,
RIC (Replicate Identification Code).

Master Sample: Master Sample Serial number (MSS/no), HU S/no, HH S/no, Name
Informal Enterprises Code: types
of head of HH, type of farm (crop/ livestock/ fishing).. In

Identification of the demarcated E.A (see Table 3.2)

Description of Work done

In a group of 6, I actively participate in demarcating an Enumeration Area which involves the


following activities:

i). Numbering of the structures viz: NBS/SIWES2018/GRP2/001,


NBS/SIWES2018/GRP2/002, . . . , NBS/SIWES2018/GRP2/049.

No of Housing Units: 42

No of Faming Household: 10

Assessment: Industry-Based supervisor came for Spot Check of the work done and gives
grades.

3.5.3 Completing the Selection Sheet


The first step is to ensure that all serial numbering of housing units (HU) or household
(HH) including FHU or FHH in the listing form are correctly done by checking the
column titled HU, HH, FHU and FHH. This is because this is to ensure that housing
units (HU) and the household (HH) are neither omitted nor duplicated, this is because
the estimation of Sample Interval (S.I) and the sample selection largely depends on the
correct numbering of HU or HH household.

!:,;'!<!!! %)
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

3.6 Sample Selection

This has to do with procedure of selection sample of HU or HH, FHU or FHH that
will be served with both the general household survey questionnaire and the holding
questionnaires respectively.

3.6.1 Obtaining the Sample Interval (S.I)


In obtaining Sample Interval (S.I), we divide the total number of housing units listed
by the number of sample required. Let total number of HU or HH listed be
represented by N and the sample required be represented by n, then; S.I = N/n.

Rc-S!%&<((%&5`0((-004S&((5,-5((5,&((5)5-%((L4SQ&"(()*((,)40#L'((4L#50((%#05&/((#L((-L((R1N((#0((]?((
and 10 households are to be studied.

Therefore, Sample Interval (S.I) = 64/10 = 6.4

Practical Example I
Obtain the Sample Interval (S.I) for the numbered Enu
Enumeration
ume Area?

Noted: The total number of Housing Units iss 42. And


An the number of households to be studied
will be 6 (a group of 6).

Therefore, N = 49, and n = 6. And amp Interval (S.I) = N/n = 42/6 = 7

3.6.2 Random Number Table (RNT)


HOW TO DETERMINE THE APPROPRIATE PAGE OF THE RANDOM NUMBER
TABLE (RNT) TO BE USED

The random number table has six pages; showing in this table below is a guide for
the use of RNT
DATE OF THE MONTH PAGE NUMBER

11-15 3
16-20 4
21-25 6
26-31 7

!:,;'!<!!! %*
SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

How to Obtain Appropriate Column to be used


There are 25 column (taking two digits set of number) each column correspond to each date
of the month e.g. if the date of selection is 18th month, the column to be used is column 18 of
page 4. If however, the date is more than 25th, say 28th of the month, then subtract 25 from
28. The difference will give the column to be used. i.e. 28- 25 = 3.

Therefore, the column to be used is column 3 of page VI (6)

Obtaining Random Start (R/S)


After picking the page and column from the random table, the next stage is to determine the
Random Start (R/S) which is the 1st number greater than zero but less or equal to S.I, taking
the date of selection into consideration; that is, 0<RSdS.I.

Example: The total number of HU/HH listed in an E.A is 85 and the number of HU/HH to be
selected for interview is 10, find the S.I and determine the HU/HH to be interviewed.

Total number of household = 85 = N

Sample size = 10 = n

Page of random number = page 6

S.I = N/n = 85/10 = 8.5

:. Random start = 06.2

Date of Selection = 31st of October

Column of random number = column 6

S/N COMPUTATON HU/HH SELECTED


1 R/S = 06.2 06

7 48.7+8.5=57.2 57
8 57.2+8.5=65.7 65
9 65.7+8.5=74.2 74
10 74.2+8.5=82.7 82

SIWES TECHNICAL REPORT 2019

N.B: The above N = 85 which corresponds to the set of two digits number on the table,
therefore no digit will be borrowed from the right hand side of the next column.

However, if the total number of housing units (N) is a three digit number, say 148, one digit
will be borrowed from the right hand side of the next column as shown in the following
example.

Example: The total number of HU/HH listed in an E.A is 224 and the sample size is 10,if the
date of selection is 18th ,find the SI and determine the HU/HH to be interviewed.

Solution

Total number of household (N) = 224. Sample size (n) = 10

Sample Interval (S.I) = N/n = 224/10 = 22.4

CHAPTER FOUR
PRICES COLLECTION

Prices are collected in order to get information for the construction of Consumer Price Index
(CPI). The Consumer Price Index shows the trends of prices of goods and services to be
compared with a base year (past year).

4.1 Objectives of Prices Collection

As stated by NBS the main objectives of prices collection include:

i). To know the prices of essential commodities


ii). To study the change in Consumer Price Index
iii). To fix wages and salaries of workers
iv). Helps government to project and adjust policies on prices
v). Helps government to know which sector of economy
my is
om i faring well and which sector
needs attention

4.2 Selection of Centre of Collection

Prices collection is generally carried out


ut in centres
cen
ce where Rural or Urban consumer survey
have been conducted and also in other
er centres
ce
cen within sample of HH survey.

4.3 Procedures for Prices Collection


Co

After the market outlets have been selected, prices are collected for all commodities in the
Retail Prices (RP) form. There are three types of collection, namely;

@ Retail
@ Wholesales
@ Hose to House

Price collectors go to the market in the morning of each specific working day to collect prices
from good-sellers. The price collector collect prices by bargaining as an ordinary buyer will
do. He/She also collects prices form those who have bought some items from the market.
Prices are also collected from super market, industries and in those house of selected
households.

CHAPTER SIX
RELEVANCE OF MATHEMATICS
This chapter revealed the relevance of Mathematics with respect to the SIWES attachment at
the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS). The knowledge of Computational Mathematics
MAT 398 was employed as a reference to its relevance to NBS.

I make use of Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) in order bridge the gap
between how it was learned in class and how it evidence in practical life.

6.1 Meaning of SPSS

SPSS Statistics is a software package used for interactive, or batched, statistical analysis.
Long produced by SPSS Inc., it was acquired by IBM 2009. The current versions (2015) are
named IBM SPSS Statistics.
The software name originally stood for Statistical Packagee for
f the Social Sciences (SPSS),
reflecting the original market, although the software is now
ow popular
po
p in other fields as well,
including the health and marketing.

6.2 Windows in SPSS

Three Primary Windows in SPSS are:


- The Data Editor Window
- Data Viewer
- Variable Viewer
- The Output Viewer Windows
- Contains all the results from performing
analyses, e.g syntax, tables, charts, etc.
- The Syntax Editor
- Used to write SPSS programs to run procedures
- Used as an alternative to running analyses via
the commands in the Menu Bar

This Module will only deal with SPSS Data Editor & SPSS Output Viewer Windows

Note: All Extracts in this chapter is from IBM SPSS Statistics 20 on windows 7

6.3 Types of Variables

Basically variable can be classified


fiedd as:
ifie a
Categorical Variables Numerical Variables
Variables for which the responses are
divided into non-overlapping categories or A variable for which the responses are
groups meaningful numbers (i.e you can add and
Nominal Having unordered subtract them)
categories Discrete Having discrete, countable
Ordinal Having categories ordered values, usually with no
by small to large or vice intermediate values
versa
Binary Having only two categories Continuous Having an infinite number
of possible values falling
- Counts/frequencies between intervals or any
- Mode two observed values.
- Proportions
- Bar Charts - Mean, Mode, Median
- Pie Charts - Range, Variance, Std Deviation
- Histograms
- Box Plot

6.4 Industry ABased Problems

In GHS, One hundred (100) respondents were interviewed, and their data were retrieved
using a structured questionnaire (see Figure 6.4), we need to obtain

i). the percentage distribution of respondents by marital status via pie chart
ii). the sex distribution of respondents by designation

6.5 Problem A Solving Using SPSS

6.5.1 Questionnaire Coding


Questionnaire Coding is basically done in SPSS Variable Viewer Window, using the variable
attributes to practically determine each variable. This could be done as follow:
Variable Attributes

lower case variables which will decode numerical
@ They cannot begin with a number values
