Dear Jon Peck Ok, but I don't want to count but build a new variable with three categories. I have recoded the three dichotomous variables 0/1 into a different variable with value 1. Now I want to create a new variable with the three variables converted into categories of the new variable. I am trying to do it with SPSS but I don't think it can? Thanks

So, I suppose that the input variables are dichotomous. Assuming that they are 0/1 you can just do compute religiosity = v1 + 10 * v2 + 100* v3. or something similar.

Dear Jon Peck I have three variables: V1 (Non-religious); V2 (something religious); V3 (very religious) I want to unite the three variables in a single variable (religiosity) with three categories: Category 1 (Non-religious); Category 2 (somewhat religious); category 3 (very religious) How could I do it with SPSS?

I don't see your logic here. Three variables with two categories each means eight possible categories. The code I posted puts these three variables together. It doesn't count anything.
Maybe it would help if you can explain what you want to do with this composite variable.

Dear Excuse The fault is mine for not knowing how to explain myself well. A) I have built the variables (0/1) with the count procedure Popular classes ((0/1) Middle classes (0/1) Upper classes (0/1) B) I HAVE RECODED IN THE SAME VARIABLES Popular classes (1) Middle classes (1) Upper classes (1) C) I WANT TO CATEGORIZE THE VARIABLES UNDER THE SAME VARIABLE Variable (socioeconomic position): Category 1 Popular Classes (1) Category 2 Middle classes (1) Category 3 Upper classes (1)

hello,
did you mean this?
do repeat a = v1 v2 v3/
kat = 1 2 3.
if (a = 1) religiosity = kat.
end repeat.
or
if (v1 = 1) religiosity = 1.
if (v2 = 1) religiosity = 2.
if (v3 = 1) religiosity = 3.

Dear<o:p></o:p> I need to convert three independent variables (V1; V2; V3) into categories of a new variable (V (n): Cat1 (v1) .; Cat2 (v2); Cat3 (v3)). I have studied the procedures of Counting and recoding variables but they do not work. Please could you tell me if it is possible to create the new three category variable in SPSS.<o:p></o:p> Thank you<o:p></o:p>

Dear xiaoqin Thanks but through what SPSS procedure could it be carried out (Transform, Build new variables), or would it be necessary to write it?

Hello Damian, it is necessary to write the lines in SPSS syntax editor, and let them run, the new variable will be created best regards, xiaoqin ------------------------------ xiaoqin Oezener-Wan ------------------------------
