This book can be used with any statistical software. We use jamovi or JASP in our classes because they are free, easy to use, and provide p values, effect sizes, and confidence intervals for all analyses. Because we use these programs in our own classes, we have created videos showing students how to do the activities in these programs. If you use different software and create videos for our activities, please let us know and we can link to them here.
jamovi
jamovi
jamovi is a free and open source statistical program available here: https://www.jamovi.org/
A brief instruction manual is available on the jamovi website: https://www.jamovi.org/user-manual.html
Jonas Rafi has created a set of instructions for jamovi: https://www.jamoviguide.com/
This is the program we currently use in our courses.
jasp
jasp
JASP is a free and open source statistical program available here: https://jasp-stats.org/
Dr. Mark Goss-Sampson has created a very thorough manual for using JASP that covers all of the analyses in our book. The manual is updated regularly and is available here: https://jasp-stats.org/jasp-materials/
spss
spss
SPSS is a very popular statistical program. If your university has a site license you can usually use it for free. If not, you can purchase or rent it for your own use, though it is quite expensive.
SPSS does not provide the standardized effect sizes for pairwise comparisons (d) nor does it provide confidence intervals around effect sizes. If you would like to use SPSS, we recommend that you use jamovi or JASP to obtain d and confidence intervals around d.
R
R
R is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics: https://www.r-project.org/
R does not use a point-and-click interface, making it quite a bit harder to use than the other programs listed here.
We don't currently provide instructions for R, but if you are an instructor who uses our book and would like to share your instructions for R, please send us an email!
