SPSS Topics Discussion > Version of SPSS?

Hi all,

I'm getting ready to collect my data for my dissertation and am having to decide upon which version of SPSS to purchase (or rent, as they call)-- Base, Standard, or Premium. I will be purchasing the Amos add-on, as I'm using SEM; however, I'll also be conducting correlations for some exploratory analyses (simple correlations and point biserial correlations). Am I safe to just use the Base package, or might I need the more extensive ones? Thanks for your input in advance!

I think you are definitely fine with the base, although I think AMOS will need to be purchased separately.

Thanks for your help! Base plus Amos it is, then!
