05 One-Sample t-Tests in SPSS – SPSS for Beginners

When we calculate the mean of a sample, we can then use a one-sample t test to compare that sample mean to another mean, such as a mean from a population, a normative group, or another known value (mean). The “one sample” t test is also called a “single sample” t test. You are comparing the mean from a sample to a single mean. This video will introduce you to concepts that you will need later when you learn about hypothesis testing.

For more training about how to use SPSS, please check out these videos.

This video uses a dataset we create in the first video of the series and SPSS version 24

Link to a Google Drive folder with all of the files that I use in the videos including spreadsheets, and the Bear Handout. As I add new files, they will appear here, as well.
To download, hover your cursor over the file icon and a blue download icon will appear. You do not need to request access to a file.

This video is very much descriptive and interesting to know that many methods and values consist of our daily living and being able to see the means and the standard table of it in a different language is awesome. Which, I want to thank the professor for showing me the pathway to do so.
