| Summary | 20020: SPSS export - multiple answers question | ||||
| Description | We have been using “Export answers to SPSS” to export data for many years. After upgrading to version 6.5, we now have a problem with this type of export. When exporting to SPSS (via “.sps” and “.dat” file), multiple answer questions are actually automatically recoded into 1=“selected”, 0=“not selected” and empty fields “” become SYSMIS - unfortunately, this automatic recoding no longer happens with us. Only the “1” is exported for selected answer options; the 0 becomes the SYSMIS. I have already asked in the forum. the error could already be reproduced with version 6.10.5. There the data file is not filled correctly. The xls-export shows that the data is available with “0” and “1” and “”). Only the spss export (via “.sps” and “.dat” file) causes problems. | ||||
