Comprehensive Meta-Analysis

software image

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 have used Comprehensive Meta‐analysis as the primary course software for a doctoral‐level course on systematic review and meta‐analysis methods which I have taught at Columbia University. The software, documentation, and tutorial materials have made the teaching and learning of meta‐analysis methods stimulating, efficient, and enjoyable. While the methods of meta‐analysis can be daunting to students, this program and supporting materials provide clear guidance and hands‐on experience which greatly enrich the learning process. Based on my experience I think that Comprehensive Meta‐analysis should be required in any course dealing with the subject."

Edward J Mullen - Willma & Albert Musher Professor, Columbia University


"Seeing that I can do with Comprehensive Meta‐analysis in 1 week what have taken me 3 weeks when I was using Excel spreadsheets for calculations I have the following: "Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis has increased my effectivity to do meta‐analysis with 200 %". I am extremely satisfied with this program."
