Are thesis writers expected to know how to use SPSS and stats analysis in methodology?

have a right to know who they ought not to trust

People here also have the right to make independent decisions. I am glad that with all my "inferiority" my native English speaking clients find my work really promising. If I show you the responses and feedback from my native speaking clients (alone), I am sure you'd be as shocked as struck by lightning.

Then why are you using all your energies only against me (given the fact that every single thing about me is stored on this forum's database)? I have never tried to defame, thumb down anyone whosoever.

The equation then reads: Your defensive position tells me you're scared. My straightforward standpoint tells others (and you + Rusty) that I am a very serious professional notwithstanding the fact that English is my 2nd language.

learn how to USE spss is relatively easy, but knowing the meaning behind the "click-click", it's a little bit difficult.

SPSS is a panacea...is like asking if the writer shall use the word or not...everyone knows to use SPSS otherwise he is not fit to write a thesis.

And who is that 'everyone'? On a daily basis, I deal with people struggling with SPSS; it doesn't really convince me of this 'everyone' thing. However, it is also appropriate to state that everyone CAN learn SPSS provided that they spend quality time on how to make sense of stats and then SPSS.

So you use the word to write the paper? How is you thinking you is actually qualified for to being in this business?

mea culpa, you are right. What i meant by writing "everyone" is that any writer who is involved with social sciences, business and etc. must have a sound knowledge on SPSS, especially if he/she will be assigned to write a dissertation.

My view is that today dissertations are more demanding than ever and often tutors are asking from their students to use advanced statistics....

What I meant is that your English sucks, so regardless of how skilled you are with SPSS there's no way you can write an academically appropriate thesis (or anything else) for anyone unless they want ESL writing.

English is not my mother tongue nor i am working with UK/US students (but i studied in the UK), but this is not the case. most unis are asking from their students to use SPPS for the completion of their thesis.

P.S. you cant asses a writer's quality of work unless you read his papers, you can
PM ur email to send u a sample...its up to u

most unis are asking from their students to use SPPS for the completion of their thesis.

In certain fields. Most unis also expect native students to be fluent in English, usually before they reach the thesis-completion stage. It's good that you don't work with US/UK students, and you should definitely make it clear to all customers that you do not have native-level fluency in English.

you cant asses a writer's quality of work unless you read his papers, you can

Mistakes like these are the kind of things that one turns on and off at will. Either you know how to construct a proper sentence in English or you don't. From your posts here, it is quite evident that you don't. Everything you write is still intelligible, but unless your tutor/professor is being purposefully lenient with your language use your papers would have been marked all over in red.

Clearly you have no idea what this means.

i need some good writers

One of the more obvious statements I've read in quite some time.

huh?

the writer is the most important asset

Not for scam companies, which is why they treat their writers like ****. People like you--people that think they can write but wouldn't actually be able to sustain long-term relationships with US/UK clientele--are very plentiful and work very cheap, and can easily be discarded when they complain too much.

i am not running a fancy web site promising " 1st class" grades etc and i pay the writers as soon as they deliver the project. also i am not here to find customers. i have an office in which the student can come, meet the writer, discuss the project and so on... for me this is the best practice.

You mentioned the price, what is the avg price on those sites? i applied on some of them and their prices were ridiculous. few years ago i used to work for one of the above mentioned sites and i wasnt satisfied from the prices.

What you have been trying to say here is that you're running a business in the essay writing industry; you have a "tiny office" where students meet the writers in person - so you are a legit guy. Additionally, you have advance writing skills as you know SPSS. This is a very clever move to advertise on this board. I really appreciate that. However, advertisement is not allowed. So you better be careful.

My intention is to promote my site. I am a writer and recently i launched my own "legit".

I said that UK /US nationals are not my target - group, nor i like the way that many "legit guys" work without a physical presence or owning money on their writers.

However you wouldnt mind if i asked for a writer to work with me. For example i need a writer on finance and / or business / management.

Hi MeoKhan,

This is quite a random question. I am struggling with my SPSS 500 word research report, and have read on these forums that you are quite familiar with statistics. Are you a writer?

I think you can also find the answers to these questions right here on the forum. However, let me tell you that I will not be able to do any business here because it's not allowed.

I apologise if someone already pointed this out (I skipped all the Ling 101 garbage), but for a thesis you may be able to hire a statistician quite legitimately. When I was doing my honours dissertation I was initially going to use statistical analysis and it was quite acceptable with my (Australian) university to farm out the SPSS work, provided I did the research and analysis of results myself. I would guess that most social science academics don't know their way around stats - especially stats software - beyond a general interpretation of results, so most journal articles would get done that way.

If you really want to go with a ghost writer, they wouldn't need to know stats. You could probably get a post-grad stats student to do it for you fairly cheaply if you just feed them the data.

Stats and SPSS are not as complex as they seem in the first place.

It may not seem complex to you, but can be daunting to others. So don't go making other students feel inferior to you just because they have a different opinion or approach to methodologies. How dare you do that. You are not the best writer on the planet and nobody made you the god of SPSS. Remember that we are entitled to our own opinions and nobody, should judge us by the statements that we make. You should have respected her opinion and not said anything about it.

Writers are not expected to know what these methodologies are and how to use them in general. Only writers who actually need to use these in specific analysis cases and research papers need to be proficient in using the methodology. Writers can always work on more familiar papers rather than trying to understand how to use these, and eventually use in in the paper of a student. Unfamiliarity will result in a horribly developed, quite possible incorrectly presented paper from the writer, for which he expects to get paid. Do not do the job if you are not familiar with the completion requirements. If you even have to ask if you need to know about these things means you are not capable of writing the paper. Stay away from papers covering topics you will have to study as a writer. Be kind and honest with your client. Tell him upfront what you are and are not capable of working on. Don't try to do the paper just because you want to collect the fee for it. Do not do the client a disservice.
The opinions are that of the author's alone based on an individual capacity. Opinions are provided "as is" and are not error-free.
