"Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis (CMA) is an excellent statistical software program. CMA is very userfriendly, provides essential elements of analyses required for synthesis of quantitative studies, evaluates publication bias statistically and graphically, and offers technical support. I have used CMA for a recent study I conducted with my professor at the University of Maryland, The reliability and validity of the Anticipated Turnover Scale across studies of RNs in the US (in press). I highly recommend the Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis software program for anyone conducting meta‐analytic research."

"I have been a satisfied user of Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis software for about two years. I find the software is easy to use and offers an extensive range of options for analysis. I like being able to toggle between fixed and random effects, and seeing the difference(s) between the two. I also find that the ability to evaluate symmetrical confidence intervals, and have non‐symmetry flagged, is a major advantage to the software. The automatic generation of funnel plots, which do not exist as an option in many scientific graphing packages, is particularly of value when discussing bias."
