The OLAP Cubes procedure provides summary statistics for continuous summary variables within categories of one or more grouping variables. A variety of statistics is available, from simple counts, sums, and percentages to sophisticated measures of central tendency and dispersion. By default, a summary table is produced, with separate layers in the table created for each category of each grouping variable. From that starting summary, pivoting can be used to reveal the subgroup statistics hidden in the layer. Additionally, the title and footnote text is easily customizable.

  • The Summarize and Means procedures provide similar functionality but, by default, display different statistics and have different table layouts. The Summarize procedure additionally provides the ability to display individual case listings. The Means procedure additionally provides a one-way ANOVA and test for linearity.
  • The Explore procedure provides additional statistics and plots for scale variables within the categories of a single grouping variable at a time.
