Hi,

1. Putting your results in Excel: Based on your description, you have two individuals and three tests. I would suggest the following data layout in Excel: This table will provide a comparison of the results before and after treatment for both individuals.
2. Choose the test in JASP: Your data is paired, as each person was tested before and after treatment, requiring tests that account for this. For quantitative data, consider a paired t-test to compare the means of before and after scores and determine if there is a significant difference. For qualitative data, where descriptors may be ranked as 1 'poor', 2 'fair', 3 'good', 4 'excellent', a Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test, a non-parametric test, may be useful for comparing paired groups without assuming normality.

I agree with pchs0114 except that if there are really only two individuals, it's not worth doing any kind of statistical test. Two is not enough to be convincing.
