IBM® SPSS Statistics® and SPSS® Amos™

SPSS is an acronym for Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. It is a statistical package that performs highly complex data manipulation and analysis using simple instructions.

IBM® SPSS Statistics® and SPSS® Amos™ are available to UTRGV students, faculty, and educational/academic researchers.

IBM® SPSS Statistics® is an integrated family of products that addresses the entire analytical process, from planning, data collection, and analysis to reporting and deployment.
