Hi,

Yes, IBM SPSS Statistics 31 works on Apple Silicon Macs using Rosetta 2 translation, provided you are running version 31.0.1 or later for modern macOS compatibility.

it is running with 4 to 8GB RAM, though you should need more RAM for better performance.

Note that running SPSS under Rosetta 2 translation might be an option in macOS 27 (Golden Gate) – but won't be an option in macOS 28, or any subsequent version.

"Starting with macOS 28, the next major macOS release, Rosetta functionality will be available only for certain older, unmaintained games that rely on Intel-based frameworks."
