What statistical tests would be effective for this design?

Here the basics: Group 1 is the control group, they are given a specific website to use. Group 2 is the experimental group, they are given a similar website, with adjusted hypertext properties.

After they complete the required actions, they are asked to complete a survey, (Likert Scale) which attempts to measure their feeling on the security and convenience of the website.

This is the condensed version of the question. Just want to check.

The IV: Hypertext The DV: Security and Convenience (Measured through Likert Scale)

But which statistical tests in SPSS can I use to indicate a significant difference in the control and experimental group? And added advice would also be great.

New to stats, so any help would be appreciated.

@newbie23,
Your data appears to be ordinal which implies a non-parametric test such as the Mann-Whitney U-test, rather than its parametric equivalent, the t-test.
Google will give you references and demonstrations.
