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


"I've been using different versions of the comprehensive meta‐analysis software over many years for my research. Each version improved significantly, added new and important features, and made the visual outcomes easier to comprehend and present. One such improvement, for example, was the addition of moderater analysis for both categorical and continuous variables. It provides an easily understood menu that guides the user toward a correct statistical analysis. I also find the manual very useful and supportive, recommend it to my graduate students to use it for self‐teaching learning."
