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.


"I was an early adopter of CMA version 2 and have used it extensively in the last few years. CMA is easy to use, has a great diversity of computational options, is very reliable and is now well known by journal editors. I have no hesitation in recommending CMA to fellow academics."

Dr. Matthew Large - School of Psychiatry, University of New South Wales, Australia


"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
