Free statistical software

G*Power 3 is a major extension of, and improvement over, G*Power 2. It covers statistical power analyses for many different statistical tests of the
  • F test,
  • t test,
  • χ2-test and
  • z test families and some
  • exact tests.
G*Power 3 offers five different types of statistical power analysis:
  • A priori (sample size N is computed as a function of power level 1-β, significance level α, and the to-be-detected population effect size)
  • Compromise (both α and 1-β are computed as functions of effect size, N, and an error probability ratio q = β/α)
  • Criterion (α and the associated decision criterion are computed as a function of 1-β, the effect size, and N)
  • Post-hoc (1-β is computed as a function of α, the population effect size, and N)
  • Sensitivity (population effect size is computed as a function of α, 1-β, and N)
G*Power 3 provides improved effect size calculators and graphics options. It supports both a distribution-based and a design-based input mode.

G*Power 3 is available for Mac OS X 10.4 and Windows XP/Vista. G*Power 3 is free.

We encourage you to register, that is, to let us know your e-mail address so that we can inform you of updates of the program.

Free Q -studies software

PQmethod

PQMethod is a statistical program taylored to the requirements of Q studies. Specifically, it allows to easily enter data (Q-Sorts) the way they are collected, i.e. as 'piles' of statement numbers. It computes intercorrelations among Q-Sorts, which are then factor-analysed with the Centroid or, alternatively, PCA method. Resulting factors can be rotated either analytically (Varimax), or judgmentally with the help of two-dimensional plots. Finally, after selecting the relevant factors and 'flagging' the entries that define the factors, the analysis step produces an extensive report with a variety of tables on factor loadings, statement factor scores, discriminating statements for each of the factors as well as consensus statements across factors, etc. The original FORTRAN program, QMethod, was developed by John Atkinson at Kent State University in 1992 for mainframe platforms, and released to the Public Domain. It was ported by the maintainer of this site to the PC and updated with added features to versions 2.xx later on.
