Program Dynamic
In the old days, SPSS used an
output format for correlation matrices that permitted the user to see the
whole correlation matrix by just scrolling down the window. With the
introduction of pivot tables, users are forced to scroll both right and down
and it is very difficult to locate on the screen correlations between
variables on the left side of the matrix with variables on the right
side of the matrix. The pivot table looks pretty, but it is not very
functional when it comes time to looking at large correlation matrices on
your computer screen.
ZumaStat returns the glory of the old SPSS output.
Crude but effective. You click on the correlation matrix that you want
to reformat and then run the ZumaStat routine. A reformatted matrix in
a new window appears, ready to be printed, if desired.

The Output
The output appears as follows:

This is only a partial output for a 30 variable matrix, but
you can get an idea of the presentation format. ZumaStat presents the
data in five column fields. You simply scroll down
the window to get the next set of five variables until the full 30 variables
are seen.
