For my project, I made my participants 'select all that may apply' by asking them how they received informal recognition.
Ex: Received a thank you from manager
Received email from manager
Received handshake
and more...
I separated each response by itself and each response is its own variable on SPSS.
Ex: 1 = Received a thank you from manager
0 = other
I want to see which informal recognition received by my participants yield a greater employee engagement.
Main question: Which statistical analysis in SPSS should I use to find this? I've been struggling to figuring it out and hopefully you guys can steer me to the right direction.
Thanks,
Hector
Hello Hector,
If the dependent variable (employee engagement) is a metric variable (interval or ratio strength), then multiple linear regression would be a good starting point for determining which (if any) of the informal recognition types help explain differences in perceived engagement.
If the engagement variable is categorical, logistic regression would be preferred.
Good luck with your work!
