Comprehensive Meta-Analysis

Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) is a powerful computer program for meta-analysis. The program combines ease of use with a wide array of computational options and sophisticated graphics.


"“Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis” represents state‐of‐the art software for conducting meta‐analysis and I highly recommend it to individuals of all stripes seeking to conduct quantitative reviews of the research literature. Its template for data input and its various options for producing outputs and tables make it one‐stop software for research reports. I cannot say enough about CMA and its functionality."

Thomas Hugh Feeley - University at Buffalo


"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."
