Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

Can anyone help me to examine sex-ratios with SPSS f Win?
I want to compare the sex-ratios (e g percent males per litter) of
guinea pigs from a controlgroup versus a treatment-group.
The mean littersize in guinea pigs is about 3 young per litter, the
range is 1-12, but more than 7 is extremely rare.
As I understood, Chi-sqare- and Binomial-tests are not allowed. A friend
told me to read "Crawley, M. J.: GLIM for Ecologists. Blackwell
scientific publications"
In SAS the code would look like:
proc genmod; class group;
model m/ls = group /dist=bnml link=logit;
 
But I don4t know how to do this with SPSS for Win.
Can you help me?
 
Ruediger
