ABOUT JAMOVI-
Free and open statistical software to bridge the gap between researcher
and statistician.
Jamovi is statical software made by co-founders Jonathon love, dammian,
dropman and Ravi selkar.
Jamovi is a compelling alternative to costly statisticsl products such as
SPSS and SAS.
It also supports loading of SPSS,SAS and stata files.
FREE AND OPEN- JAMOVI will always be free and open- that’s one of
the core values- because JAMVI is made by the scientific community,
for the scientific community.

ADVANTAGES OF JAMOVI-
JAMOVI has a very beautiful user interface with some very handy features:
It does real- time computation and presents and updates results immediately with
beautiful figures and neat APA tables.
JAMOVI is much simpler and easier to use.
Doing statistics in a conventional spreadsheet for ex- in microsoft excel is generally
not suitable in the long run so we use JAMOVI.
Avoiding proprietary/paid software will be economical so JAMOVI is economical.
JAMOVI is basically a sophisticated front end for the free R statistical programming
language.
By using JAMOVI you can save from purchasing other software because JAMOVI is
free software.
We can easily add or remove anything directly into the software.
FUNCTIONS/FEATURES OF JAMOVI
ANALYSES- JAMOVI provides a complete suite of analyses for (not just) the social
sciences; T-Tests, Anovas, correlation and regression, non-parametric tests, contingency
tables, reliability and factor analysis.
TEACHING- JAMOVI ease of use makes it ideal for introducing people to statistics and its
advanced features ensure students will be well equipped for the rigour of real research when
they graduate. Over 300 universities use jamovi to teach statistics.
ANALYSIS- Analysis we can do analysis like Exploration like descriptive, charts etc . T-
test, Anova, Regression, Frequency, factor analysis and other advanced technique
RESULT SHEET OR OUTPUT SHEET- In the right side in figure 1,2 there is a free plane
sheet that is the output sheet or result sheet because output or result of any data analysis
shown here.
SPACEBAR OR SCROLL BAR- This is a flexible too by using this we can easily enlarge
the input side/spreadsheet or output side as per our requirement.
FILE TAB – Three dots in the upper side is called FILE TAB and when click on file tab
some options appears that is shown in figure 1.3.

After T-tests there is a option called ANOVA which also contains so many options like-
ONE WAY-ANOVA, ANOVA, REPEATED MEASURE ANOVA , ANACOVA and
MANCOVA . We can also use ANOVA in analysing our data.

We see six commands appear. With the FILE TAB, you can OPEN,
SAVE, OR EXPORT what you performed in jamovi.
This time, we will click the DATA RIBBON ( again emphasized in the
solid rectangle). Simultaneously focus on which buttons appears when
you click the DATA RIBBON.
DATA RIBBON concerns with managing data. In general if you want to
add a new column, compute a new variable.filter certain value of a
variable, and so on.

• Comma separated value (csv) files are those with a .csv file extension. These are just
regular old text files and they can be opened with many different software programs. It’s
quite typical for people to store data in csv files, precisely because they’re so simple.
There are also several other kinds of data file that you might want to import into jamovi. For
instance, you might want to open Microsoft Excel spreadsheets (.xls files), or data files that
have been saved in the native file formats for other statistics software, such as SPSS or SAS.
Whichever file formats you are using, it’s a good idea to create a folder or folders especially
for your jamovi data sets and analyses and to make sure you keep these backed up regularly.
So first lets discuss the elements that descriptive data contains like mean, mode, range,
variance etc.
MEAN- The mean of a set of observations is just a normal, old-fashioned average. Add all of
the values up, and then divide by the total number of values.
Example- The first five AFL winning margins were 56, 31, 56, 8 and 32, so the mean of these
observations is just: 56 ` 31 ` 56 ` 8 ` 32 5 “ 183 5 “ 36.60 Of course, this definition of the
mean isn’t new to anyone.
Averages (i.e., means) are used so often in everyday life that this is pretty familiar stuff.
However, since the concept of a mean is something that everyone already understands, I’ll
use this as an excuse to start introducing some of the mathematical notation that statisticians
use to describe this calculation, and talk about how the calculations would be done in jamovi.
QUESTION- “ Online classes and online exams is just a formality there is no use of it” Rate

MEAN IS SHOWN IN THIS FIGURE
MEDIAN- The second measure of central tendency that people use a lot is the median, and
it’s even easier to describe than the mean. The median of a set of observations is just the
middle value. As before let’s imagine we were interested only in the first 5 AFL winning
margins: 56, 31, 56, 8 and 32. To figure out the median we sort these numbers into ascending
order: 8, 31, 32, 56, 56 From inspection, it’s obvious that the median value of these 5
observations is 32 since that’s the middle one in the sorted list (I’ve put it in bold to make it
even more obvious). Easy stuff. But what should we do if we are interested in the first 6
games rather than the first 5? Since the sixth game in the season had a winning margin of 14
points, our sorted list is now 8, 14, 31, 32, 56, 56 and there are two middle numbers, 31 and
32. The median is defined as the average of those two numbers, which is of course 31.5. As
before, it’s very tedious to do this by hand - 63 -when you’ve got lots of numbers.
MEDIAN SHOWN HERE
RANGE- The range of a variable is very simple. It’s the biggest value minus the smallest
value. For the AFL winning margins data the maximum value is 116 and the minimum value
is 0. Although the range is the simplest way to quantify the notion of “variability”, it’s one of
the worst. Recall from our discussion of the mean that we want our summary measure to be
robust. If the data set has one or two extremely bad values in it we’d like our statistics to not
be unduly influenced by these cases. For example, in a variable containing very extreme
outliers ´100, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 it is clear that the range is not robust. This variable has a
range of 110 but if the outlier were removed we would have a range of only 8.
Variance. Tells you the average squared deviation from the mean. It’s mathematically elegant
and is probably the “right” way to describe variation around the mean, but it’s completely
uninterpretable because it doesn’t use the same units as the data. Almost never used except as a
mathematical tool, but it’s buried “under the hood” of a very large number of statistical tools.
MODE- The mode of a data set is the number that occurs most frequently in the set. To
easily find the mode, put the number in order from least to greatest and count how many
times each number occurs.
INDEPENDENT T- TEST
The independent T-Test, also called the two sample T-Test, independent- samples T-Test or
student’s T-Test, is an inferential statistical test that determines whether there is a statistically
significant differebce between the means in two unrelated groups.
H0: u1 =u2
In most cases, we are looking to see if we can show that we can reject the NULL
HYPOTHESIS and accept the alternative HYPOTHESIS, which is that the population
means are not equal.
To do this ,we need to set a significance level ( also called alpha) that allows us to
either reject or accept the alternative hypothesis. Most commonly, this value is set at
0.05.
NOTE- If these assumptions are badly violated, you could consider using a MANN-
WHITNEY test instead of a test. This is suitable for ordinal value as well.
INDEPENDENT T-TEST
The PAIRED SAMPLE T-TEST, sometimes called the dependent sample T-Test, is a
statistical procedure used to determine whether the mean difference between two sets
of observation is zero. In a PAIRED SAMPLE T-TEST, each subject or entity is
measured twice, resulting in pairs of observation.
UNPAIRED T-TEST (student’s test) compares two different subjects. The paired t-
tests reduces inter subject variability ( because it makes comparisons between the
same subject), and thus it theoretically more powerful than the unpaired t-test.
Before and after obsevations on the same subjects (e.g. students diagnostic test results
before and after a particular module or course).
A comparison of two different methods of measurement or two different treatments
where the measurements/treatments are applied to the same subjects (e.g. blood
pressure measurements using a stethoscope and a dynamap).
ANOVA
INTRODUCTION TO ANOVA
The one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) is used to determine whether there are
any statistically significant differences between the means of three or more
independent (unrelated) groups.
There is a thin line of demarcation amidst t-test and ANOVA, i.e. when the
population means of only two groups is to be compared, the t-test is used, but when
means of more than two groups are to be compared, ANOVA is preferred.
ANCOVA
Analysis of covariance is used to test the main and interaction effects of categorical
variables on a continuous dependent variable, controlling for the effects of selected
other continuous variables, which co-vary with the dependent.
ASSUMPTIONS OF ANCOVA-
The lines expressing these linear relationships are all parallel (homogeneity of
regression slopes)
The covariate is independent of the treatment effects (i.e. the covariant and
independent variables are independent
Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA)
is an extension of the univariate analysis of variance. In an ANOVA, we examine for
statistical differences on one continuous dependent variable by an independent grouping
variable. The MANOVA extends this analysis by taking into account multiple continuous
dependent variables, and bundles them together into a weighted linear combination or
composite variable. The MANOVA will compare whether or not the newly created
combination differs by the different groups, or levels, of the independent variable. In this
way, the MANOVA essentially tests whether or not the independent grouping variable
simultaneously explains a statistically significant amount of variance in the dependent
variable.
ASSUMPTIONS
Independent Random Sampling: MANOVA assumes that the observations are
independent of one another, there is not any pattern for the selection of the sample,
and that the sample is completely random.
Select all the items and move them from the left window into the right window. Then, take back .
You don’t want to include the original items because they are phrased in the opposite direction of
the other items..
Jamovi is interactive. So any changes you make in the analysis on the left are instantsly
shown in the results on the right.
We need some statistics about our scale. So under the Scale Statitstics list on the left of the
dialog, notics that "Chronbach's" is selected, and add "Mean" and "Standard Deviation" to the
list of of selections. Under the Item Statistics lable below the list of items, select Chronbach's
α (if item is dropped), Mean, and Standard Deviation.
If all goes well, you will obtain output in the Output Window that begins with this:
FINAL RELIABILITY ANALYSIS, CRONBACH TEST, MCDONALD TEST ,
MEAN,STANDARD DEVIATON.
