Re: multiple response set

[Matthias Faeth]

I would support that. Multi Response is the one procedure that lets me stick to SPSS. I'm not a progammer but would help with testing and comparing.

So how to analyse mult response questions ? What can you do with MRSETS when
you have no Mult response frequencies or tables ?

There is no such functionality yet.  MRSETS is implemented to allow the
.sav file format to be more completely supported, but multiple response
sets are not otherwise useful.

This is a pity. The multiple response format is a widely used in survey research and few stats programs have a proc to analyse them.

Having this opportunity in PSPP would strongly increase its usefulness for a wider audience.

And what does the cryptic sentence mean (manual p.113)
Otherwise, multiple response sets are currently used only by third party
software.
Could you please be more specific ? Which third party software do you mean ?

Software other than PSPP.

This was already evident to me. But which one ? SPSS ?
