PROGRAM MAINS FEATURES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SIMSTAT is a menu driven statistical program that provides many
basic descriptive and comparative statistics including:
o Summary statistics (mean, variance, standard deviation, etc.)
o Crosstabulation
- normal crosstabulation and inter-raters agreement table
- nominal statistics (chi-square, Pearson's Phi,
Goodman-Kruskall's Gamma, Contingency coefficient)
- ordinal statistics (Kendall's tau-b and tau-c, Pearson's R,
symetric and asymetric Somers' D, Dxy and Dyx)
- inter-raters agreement statistics (percentage of agreement,
Cohen's Kappa, Scott's Pi, Krippendorf's r and R-bar, free
marginal correction for nominal and ordinal measure)
- 3-D bar chart
o Frequencies analysis including:
- frequencies table
- barchart
NEW 2.0 - graphic pie chart
- histogram (text or graphic)
- descriptive statistics
- percentile table
NEW 2.0 - Box-and-Whiskers plot
o Breakdown analysis
NEW 2.0 - Multiple Box-and-Whiskers plot
NEW 2.0 o Multiple responses analysis
- frequency analysis
- crosstab analysis
NEW 2.0 o Time series analysis incluging
- Data transformation (ex.: remove mean, lag, etc.)
- Auto-correlation diagnostic (ACF and PACF plot).
- Time series smoothing techniques (moving average,
running median)
o Oneway analysis of variance
NEW 2.0 - Scheffe post hoc test.
o Paired and independent sample t-tests
o Pearson correlation matrix, covariance and cross product
deviation
o Regression analysis including:
- Linear and 7 nonlinear regressions including:
- quadratic
- cubic
- 4th degree polynomial
- 5th degree polynomial
- logarithmic
- exponential
- inverse
- X and Y scatterplot (text or graphic)
- regression equation
- analysis of variance
- residuals caseplot
NEW 2.0 - standardized residuals scatterplot
NEW 2.0 o Multiple regression analysis including:
- 5 different regression methods:
- hiearchical entry
- forward selection
- backward elimination
- stewpwise selection
- enter all variables
- P to enter, P to remove, and tolerance criteria
- anova table
- test of change anova table
- regression equation (B, standard error of B, beta, confidence
interval of B, zero-order, semi-partial and partial
correlations, tolerance level, F, significance)
o Nonparametric analysis including:
NEW 2.0 - Binomial test
NEW 2.0 - One sample chi-square test
NEW 2.0 - Runs test
- Mann-Whitney U test
- Wilcoxon T-test
- Sign test
- Kruskall-Wallis ANOVA
NEW 2.0 - Friedman two way anova
- Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for 2 samples
NEW 2.0 - Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for 1 samples
- Moses test of extreme reactions
- Median test (2 or more samples)
o nonparametric association matrix including
- Spearman's R
- Sommer's D, Dxy and Dyx
- Goodman Kruskall's Gamma
- Kendall's Tau-a, Tau-b
- Kendall Stuart's Tau-c
o bootstrap analysis
- simulation on 7 univariate and 21 bivariate estimators:
- descriptive statistics
NEW 2.0 - histogram (text of graphics)
- percentile table
- nonparametric confidence intervals
- nonparametric power analysis
- variable sample size
- random sampling simulation
NEW 2.0 - full analysis bootstrap simulation
NEW 2.0 o high-resolution graphics
- Pie chart, 3-D bar chart, histogram, scatterplot, time series
- User control of axis scaling, titles, grid, etc.
- Graphics can be printed on almost any type of printers such as:
- 9 and 24 pin dot matrix printers,
- 9 and 24 pin color printers,
- HP LaserJet,
- HP DeskJet,
- Deskjet 500c and 550c color printers,
- PostScript printers,
- HP PaintJet color printer,
- HP pen plotters.
- Graphics can be exported to PCX or HPGL graphic formats.
OTHER FEATURES:
NEW 2.0 o Integer weighting of cases using another variable.
NEW 2.0 o Direct access to 4 user defined external data editors for each
type of data file (Lotus, dBase, Ascii, SPSS/PC+).
NEW 2.0 o Ability to assign missing value and variable label to any variable
or to change the variable length and number of decimal used to
display results. Ability to save and recall all those informations
in a dictionnary file.
NEW 2.0 o Ability to shell to DOS.
NEW 2.0 o Ability to save and retrieve options files.
NEW 2.0 o SIMEDIT spreadsheet data editor (SIMEDIT and SPSS/PC+ file format)
- Import Lotus, dBase, SPSS/PC+ and ASCII file
- Export dBase, SPSS/PC+, and ASCII file
- IF-THEN-ELSE conditional variable tranformation with more
than 47 operators and functions (numeric, trigonometric,
statistics, random number and date function).
- Undo last transformation.
- Quick transform command for often used transformation.
- Ability to assign variable/value labels and missing values.
- Variable recoding, ranking, etc..
- Ability to sort cases.
- Search and replace values.
NEW 2.1 o Ability to customize a new Add-in pulldown menu to run
SIMSTAT add-in programs or other often used applications.
This provides an interface to the powerful NONLIN nonlinear
regression program as well as other external programs.
NEW 2.1 o SIMCALC probability calculator computes probabilities for
9 types of test/distribution as well as confidence intervals
for mean and correlation.
INPUT AND OUTPUT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The data may be read directly from a dBase file (version III or IV),
a LOTUS 1-2-3 file, an SPSS/PC+ file or from an ASCII data file.
The output can be read on the screen, save on disk in a listing
file, and/or send directly to the printer.
CAPABILITY
~~~~~~~~~~
The program can handle up to 500 variables and 32,000 cases. The
simulation can contain between 50 and 20,000 subsampling. These
limitations are the absolute maximums and can be somewhat lower
depending on the amount of memory available.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SIMSTAT will run on any IBM PC/XT, AT, PS/2 and compatible under
MS-DOS/PC-DOS version 3.0 or higher. A minimum of 360K of free RAM is
necessary.
The program does not need a numeric coprocessor but will use it
if available. A coprocessor is highly recommended for extensive
bootstrap simulation or computation on large samples.
