JASP is a free and open-source graphical 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

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
T-tests: independent, paired, one-sample checkY checkY
Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon checkY checkY
Correlation[5]: Pearson, Spearman, and Kendall checkY checkY
Reliability analyses: α, γδ, and ω checkY
ANOVA, ANCOVA, Repeated measures ANOVA and MANOVA checkY checkY
Linear regression checkY checkY
Log-linear regression checkY checkY
Logistic regression checkY
Contingency tables (including Chi-squared test) checkY checkY
Binomial test checkY checkY
Multinomial test checkY checkY
A/B test checkY
Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) checkY
Principal component analysis (PCA) checkY
Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) checkY
Structural equation modeling (SEM) checkY
Network Analysis checkY
Meta Analysis checkY checkY
Summary Stats[6] checkY
