The can be imported directly by SPSS via its text file import facilities (both via the SPSS GUI as well as via SPSS syntax). Details are available in the SPSS documentation and you can also find various tutorials online: https://www.google.com/search?q=spss+import+text+files - There is no need for intermediary XLS files, but SPSS can read those directly as well. There is no reason to copy & paste them. - SPSS can also merge data files, if that's what you prefer to do. You'll also find that covered in the SPSS documentation and various other sources available online: https://www.google.com/search?q=spss+merge+data+files Hope this helps. Edited 8 Years Ago by Dave

Group: Forum Members Posts: 11, Visits: 24	So here we are, data is almost in and i wanted to take a first look Only now what I feared became true: importing my IAT data into SPSS is a h*** of a task... so my question: are there any easy ways to do it? rigth now i: have one IAT file per subject so i save these as .xls which i then open and copy paste into SPSS is there a way to - create 1 file for all subjects rather than 1 per subject? - get all the files into SPSS with one step? (even two would be an improvement ;-)) cheers Tags SPSS import data IAT
