JASP is a free and open-source graphical program for statistical analysis, designed to be easy to use, and familiar to users of SPSS. Additionally, JASP provides many Bayesian statistical methods. A list below shows JASP alternatives which were either selected by us or voted for by users. JASP is built on slightly older technology and Mac users like myself have to install X11 first, which is a slight pain. Jamovi is built on HTML5, which means that it doesn't require any extra.
JASP is a free and open-source program for statistical analysis supported by the University of Amsterdam. It is designed to be easy to use, and familiar to users of SPSS. It offers standard analysis procedures in both their classical and Bayesian form.[1][2] JASP generally produces APA style results tables and plots to ease publication. It promotes open science by integration with the Open Science Framework and reproducibility by integrating the analysis settings into the results. The development of JASP is financially supported by several universities and research funds.
Analyses[edit]
JASP offers frequentist inference and Bayesian inference on the same statistical models. Frequentist inference uses p-values and confidence intervals to control error rates in the limit of infinite perfect replications. Bayesian inference uses credible intervals and Bayes factors[3][4] to estimate credible parameter values and model evidence given the available data and prior knowledge.
The following analyses are available in JASP:
| Analysis | Frequentist | Bayesian |
|---|---|---|
| A/B test | ||
| ANOVA, ANCOVA, Repeated measures ANOVA and MANOVA | ||
| AUDIT (module) | ||
| Bain (module) | ||
| Binomial test | ||
| Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) | ||
| Contingency tables (including Chi-squared test) | ||
| Correlation:[5]Pearson, Spearman, and Kendall | ||
| Equivalence T-Tests: Independent, Paired, One-Sample | ||
| Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) | ||
