I'd like to make a scatterplot of a partial correlation - so a correlation with covariates. How should I do this in SPSS? If necessary, I could also do it in R. The most important thing is to show the correlation with variables partialled out.

Welcome to this site! If this question is only about how to do this is SPSS or R, it is off-topic. Otherwise, please clarify. – chl Jun 20 '14 at 11:15
It is - where should I post my question instead? – Janine W Jun 20 '14 at 11:41

Before we migrate this question on Stack Overflow, it would be good if you could include a minimal reproducible example. – chl Jun 20 '14 at 11:43

As illustrated here and here (with full R code), you can create scatterplots of the residuals of variables with respect to the covariates. The correlation coefficients of these residual scatterplots are the partial correlation coefficients. – whuber Jun 20 '14 at 13:52
