  • SPSS As an 'Inscription Device': from Causality to Description?
    SPSS as an ‘inscription device’: from causality to description? Emma Uprichard, Roger Burrows and David Byrne Abstract This paper examines the development of SPSS from 1968 to 2008, and the manner in which it has been used in teaching and research in British Sociology. We do this in order to reveal some of the changes that have taken place in statistical reasoning as an inscription device in the discipline over this period. We conclude that to characterise these changes as a shift from ‘causal’ to more ‘descriptive’ modes of analysis is too simplistic. Such a shift is certainly apparent, but it meshes in complex ways with a range of other – just as important – changes, that together mark a phase-shift in the functioning of sociological quantification. Introduction From the late 1960s onwards, British sociologists have had access to a large number of different statistical software packages. It is difficult to estimate the exact number that have been used, but there have probably been 50 or more systems that have been utilised for teaching and research at different times over the past 40 years or so. Some, such as GLIM (Generalized Linear Inter- active Modelling) developed by the Royal Statistical Society’s Working Party on Statistical Computing, were popular for a time, but then fell out of favour. Minitab, was popular for teaching in the 1980s and remains so in some insti- tutions. In addition, a recent ‘rough and ready’ audit of quantitatively inclined colleagues generated the following list of packages used in a sustained manner in recent decades: LISREL; MLwiN; R; SAS; and Stata; some colleagues also noted how widely Excel is now used for basic quantitative analysis.
