jamovi (stylised in all lower-case) is a free and open-source computer program for data analysis and performing statistical tests. The core developers of jamovi are Jonathon Love, Damian Dropmann, and Ravi Selker, who were developers for the JASP project.[1]

Software

jamovi is an open source graphical user interface for the R programming language.[2] It is used in statistical research, especially as a tool for ANOVA (analysis of variance) and to understand statistical inference.[3] [4] It also can be used for linear regression,[5] mixed models and Bayesian models.[6]

Data is entered into a spreadsheet interface[7] that can be imported into jamovi. If data are changed, all calculations and analyses affected by the change are automatically updated. The software includes a multinomial test to determine whether observed data differs from researchers' predictions.[8]

Extendibility

jamovi comes with a basic library of statistical and graphical procedures. In addition, users can install modules from a library of community created open source add-on modules to extend the package's capabilities. [9] [10] These modules are written in the R programming language and make use of the jmv[11] and jmvtools[12] libraries to create the interface and display code. Numerous modules exist and can be accessed in the curated library within jamovi. Over 40 modules[13] have been created by the jamovi community and extend the functionality of the program. These additional analyses include agreement and reliability analyses[14] mediation models,[15] [16] meta-analysis, power analysis,[17] psychometrics,[18] structural equation models,[19] survival analysis,[20] and likelihood/evidential analyses.[21] [22]

Documentation

A detailed user manual is available for jamovi. Third party learning resources are also available including free books and video tutorials in multiple languages including Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, Korean, and Malayalam [23]
