For reversecoding variables in SPSS, you must copy your variables, RECODE them and then adjust their value labels. Comparing the recoded variables with the copies ensures the results are correct. This tutorials quickly walks you through.
Reverse the coding of a variable using SPSS. This technique is useful when you have negatively and positively worded questions on a questionnaire and you need to reverse the coding of the...
In this tutorial, I will explain How to Reverse Scoring & ReverseCoding Likert Scales Questionnaire SPSS. Responses on questionnaires are often based on Likert Scale scoring (e.g. answers on a scale of 1-5).

The video demonstrates how to recode variables in SPSS based on certain conditions, such as excluding cases where one variable is higher than another. It shows how to create new variables for different treatment levels based on specific criteria.
We show you how to identify negatively worded items in your research instruments, understand their purpose, and apply the appropriate SPSS techniques to reversecode them.
