SPSS Exam 1: Statistical Analysis of Volunteer Survey Data and Results

This document provides a comprehensive analysis of an SPSS exam, focusing on the statistical analysis of a volunteer survey. The analysis includes correlations, regression, and ANOVA tests to explore relationships between various factors such as psychological factors, logistical factors, and the overall volunteering experience. The document interprets the results, including p-values and significance levels, to determine associations between variables and the ability of certain factors to predict others. Specific questions address the relationship between staff helpfulness, volunteer feelings, and the impact of logistical factors on psychological factors. The analysis also examines differences in total volunteering experience across different volunteer groups and age groups, as well as the impact of the length of service on logistical and psychological factors. The results are meticulously interpreted, providing valuable insights into the volunteer experience and the underlying factors that influence it. This analysis is a valuable resource for students studying data analysis and statistics.

Question 1
a) Q-3 and Q-13
Correlations
Staff are patient
when I need
extra information
As a volunteer I
feel a part of the
organisation as
a family
Staff are patient when I need
extra information
Pearson Correlation 1 .451**
Sig. (2-tailed) .000
N 142 141
As a volunteer I feel a part of

Pearson Correlation .451** 1
Sig. (2-tailed) .000
N 141 147
Interpretation – it can be analysed that significant value is P= .000 that is less than P= 0.05. this
means that there is no association between extra info and volunteer as part of organisation. thus,
here null hypothesis is rejected.
b) Psychological factor and logistics factor
Correlations

Interpretation – It can be evaluated that significant value is P= .000 that is less than P= 0.05.
this means that there is no association between psychological and logistics factor.
c) psychological factor and Q-13

Pearson Correlation .748** 1
Sig. (2-tailed) .000
N 119 147
Interpretation- from data it can be stated that significant value is P= .000 that is less than P=
0.05. this means that there is no association between psychological factor and as volunteer
feeling pat of organisation.
d) Logistics factor and Q-1

Staff are helpful
Pearson Correlation .179 1

Interpretation- by interpreting above data it is analysed that significant value is P= .000 that is
less than P= 0.05.So, there is no association between logistics factor and staff are helpful.

Interpretation- By interpreting above data it is analysed that significant value is P= 1.00 that is
more than P= 0.05. Thus, logistic factor can predict psychological one. This means that there is
relationship between both.
