I think John is saying that in SPSS/PSPP you need to use a statistical
function to generate statistical results like a CI. For example, T-TEST
will produce a 95% CI for the mean difference in independent-samples
t-tests. Other routines may provide other confidence intervals.
But maybe you want to
I unfortunately don't know enough about PSPP syntax to suggest how to do
this, but a CI is *not* always associated with a hypothesis and can be
calculated from just a mean and SD (and a cumulative distribution function,
which is typically the normal one). Typically the formula is something like:
m
The confidence interval is a concept associated with a hypothesis.
If it's the confidence interval on the test for a mean value, typically you
would get that by using a T-Test.

Folks,
I would like to get a 95% confidence interval so that I could use it
in AGGREGATE, e.g.,
AGGREGATE OUTFILE * MODE ADDVARIABLES
/BREAK=...
/Mean = mean(V)
/CI = ci(V, 0.95)
What must I do to get the result of my hypothetical `ci' function?
I'm a PSPP novice, so maybe there
