selecting values within a variable

anza

Hi!

I am using JASP for the first time. Sorry for the naive question: is there a way to select certain values within a variable? for example: I want to see the changes in value of an ordinal variable, from 0 to 4, along the trials within an experiment. I do not want the program to take into account when the values = 0.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Anza,

This is not currently possible in JASP, unfortunately. If you want to analyze a subset of your data, you need to

1. Open the data file in a spreadsheet (LibreOffice or Excel, for example);
2. Remove the rows that you want to exclude;
3. Save the data under a different name; and then
4. Open this new file in JASP to do the analysis.

A bit of a hassle, but it works.

Cheers!

Yes, data-editing is one of the major jobs on the JASP to-do list.
