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.


"We have used a number of meta‐analytic packages in our research and teaching, but have found the use of Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis as the only complete meta‐analysis software that meets not only the needs of our researchers but also the needs of the classroom."

Dr. R. L. Brown - Professor of Research Methodology, Director of Research Design and Statistics Unit, Schools of Nursing, Medicine and Public Health, University of Wisconsin‐Madison, Madison, WI


"The Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis program greatly facilitates conducting quantitative research syntheses. Its graphical capabilities are unmatched and make impressive visual displays of cumulative research findings easy to create. It is user friendly, and its algorithms are well validated in the methodological literature. I recommend it highly."

Steven P. Brown - Bauer Professor of Marketing, C.T. Bauer College of Business, University of Houston
