Colleagues, Many of my colleagues come to me for a recommendation for statistical software. Since I am an R user, that's my typical answer. Some colleagues of mine refuse to use it because of its steep learning curve and lack of a GUI. They wanted a statistical software that's free and that had a GUI. I recently learned about JASP. See https://jasp-stats.org/ for more details This may be an answer to their needs. Does anyone out their have any experience with this? Thomas Subia
There is also the possibility of JAMOVI, https://www.jamovi.org/ Both jamovi and jasp are using R behind the scenes. It all comes down to how comfortable you feel with the interface. I prefer jamovi to jasp. My 0.02?

Thomas: 1. I have no knowledge of JASP 2. I am pretty sure that the answer strongly depends on what sort of statistics one needs to do. I am also certain that no GUI out there can come close to R's breadth and depth of capabilities. 3. There are many GUIs for R. Here's one fairly recent discussion of some: https://r-craft.org/updated-comparison-of-r-graphical-user-interfaces/ 4. A web search on "R GUIs" and the like might find more and more discussions on them. 5. A web search on "GUI software for Data Science/Statistics" and the like would, no doubt, return tons of other packages besides JASP. So I would ask: what's special about it?

There is a recent review of 9 graphical front ends for R here: https://r4stats.com/articles/software-reviews/r-gui-comparison/ On Thu, Oct 17, 2024 at 2:49?AM tgs77m--- via R-help <r-help at r-project.org> wrote:> > Colleagues, > > Many of my colleagues come to me for a recommendation for statistical > software. > Since I am an R user, that's my typical answer. > Some colleagues of mine refuse to use it because of its steep learning curve > and lack of a GUI. > They wanted a statistical software that's free and that had a GUI. > > I recently learned about JASP.

I might start by trying to figure out what they are trying to accomplish. Is R a requirement for a GUI that requires no R coding?

If a person cannot write a bit of simple R code then it's unlikely that they can do statistics reliably. cheers, Rolf Turner -- Honorary Research Fellow Department of Statistics University of Auckland Stats.
