"Comprehensive meta‐analysis (CMA) is essential software for the meta‐analyst. Complex analyses can be conducted easily using this intuitive software. The support staff are always helpful and respond quickly when questions arise. I highly recommend CMA."

Erika A. Patall - Department of Educational Psychology, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX


"As a behavioral scientist who is newly developing expertise in using meta‐analysis, I have found CMA to be an invaluable tool. It is user‐friendly, but avoids superficiality and provides me with all the necessary technical depth I need. I have found CMA to be an outstanding program."
