Hi, from my experience the difficulty ist rather to install and manage macports as this requires to install Apple XCode which requires an apple developer access, then the macports software. I guess if you can install macports, then installing pspp is not the issue anymore. Because then you know what it means to open the terminal and type
sudo port install pspp and possibly sudo port search pspp sudo port selfupdate sudo port upgrade People who have problems to install packages which are no signed by copying to the desktop and explicitly doing right-mouse and „open“ will probably not be able to install macports.
