So you’re looking for the percentage of people whose score is greater than 30*mean of that variable?

case = person
For mean scores for each variable = sum of person scores divided by 4000.

What is a mean score for a person? Upon what basis is the mean calculated? What is a case here, a person or something else?

I have 28 scale variables with values ranging from 0 to 100%. The entire data

First column: Should contain the 28 variables appeared downward across rows.
Thus this column contains 29 rows including the heading.
Second Column: should contain the mean scores.
Third column: should contain the standard deviation of scores
Fourth column: Should contain the number of persons with >30 mean scores.
Fifth or last Column: Should contain the mean of those persons with >30 mean
scores.
Then ViAnn wrote:
What do you mean by the number of persons with >30 mean scores? And why do
you want it twice?
Reply: There are 4000 persons, right? The mean scores range from 0 to 100%, right? Now, how many of the 4000 have mean scores of greater than 30 percent (>30%)? Hope this is clear.

Deal all,
I have 28 scale variables with values ranging from 0 to 100%. The entire data
set has n=4000. I want that my output would have the following format:
First column: Should contain the 28 variables appeared downward across
rows.
Thus this column contains 29 rows including the heading.
Second Column: should contain the mean scores.
Third column: should contain the standard deviation of scores
Fourth column: Should contain the number of persons with >30 mean scores.
Fifth or last Column: Should contain the mean of those persons with >30 mean
scores.
I am pleased and thankful for any help about the syntax to produce such data.
Thank you.
Johnny
