Question

Basic Math

I am working with SPSS software. The researchers conducted astudy to determine the following:

What is the correlation between students’ age and how manyseconds they were observed washing their hands?

What is the correlation between students’ score on the “whenshould you wash your hands” knowledge index and the “correcthandwashing” self-report scale?

For "sex" the role is (input)

For "age" the role is (input)

For "seconds of hand washing" the role is(target)

For "hand washing index" the role is (both)

For "correct handwashing method" the role is(both)

I am looking to find if each dependent variable is approximatelynormally distributed, but am unsure which information should be putinto Explore in SPSS to calculate for normal distribution. I knowthat my independent variables are "age" and "sex" and one of thedependent variables is "seconds hand washing" but I am unclear asto whether I should use the other two labeled as(both) as well?

Can someone help me understand how I should go about exploringfor normal distribution?
