We need to transform data into different forms as per statistical/research needs. There are two widely used transformation procedures in IBM SPSS Statistics called compute and recode. We use compute command in SPSS to create a new variable from existing variables by using various formulas, e.g., sum, mean, subtraction, etc.
We use recode function in SPSS for several reasons. Such as
To transforming or recoding numeric/scale variables into converted numeric or categorical variables. For example, change the scale variable 'total score of Internet addiction' into the categorical variable 'Internet user category: minimal, moderate and excessive'.
To combine or merge various variables
To reverse score for negatively coded scale items
To replace missing values
To treat outliers in SPSS
We can recode into the same variable or recode into different variables. Each method has its merits and demerits. I have explained this issue in the video.
