Hint
When performing an independent-samples t-test in SPSS, the Define Groups dialog has an option of specifying a Cut point. Here is its definition according to the SPSS manual:
Cut point – Enter a number that splits the values of the grouping variable into two sets. All cases with values that are less than the cut point form one group, and cases with values that are greater than or equal to the cut point form the other group.
