JASP: nested descriptives for two factor data set
JASP is great for creating comparison between levels of One IV in Descriptives. However, it does not have option built-in for nested Descriptives results if one has two IVs.
For example, I have a Group IV with two levels and a Condition IV with two levels. One DV.
I can only get descriptive using Split group for one IV at a time. For example, for the Group IV. If I want to get the “cell” information for Group-by-Condition (e.g., M/SD/IQR/Shapiro) I have to filter the data at one level of Condition, copy the result to WORD, and then repeat for the other level of Condition.
Is there a workaround or is there any work being done to develop an option so that I do not need to filter at one level of one IV.
Thanks,
paul

Hi Paul,
Right now there is no built-in way to do this. You could create a new variable that is an interaction of the two independent variables and then use that as a grouping variable in descriptives. Alternatively, you could look at the descriptives in ANOVA.
Hope that helps,
Don
Create a new variable that combined both IVs (i.e. a single variable to indicate which cell of the design the person is in)
This text makes sense, but the random url makes this spam, unfortunately. Paul, this is an excellent feature request for our GitHub page (https://jasp-stats.org/feature-requests-bug-reports/)

If I use the Descriptive Statistics from the ANOVA module, will that output include measures like the IQR and the Shapiro-Wilk test, or is it limited to just the Mean and SD?

Working with nested descriptives in JASP is helpful when you want a clear breakdown of how two factors interact, especially if you’re comparing groups or testing patterns in your data. It’s basically a cleaner way to see what’s happening inside each level instead of relying on a single overall summary.
It reminds me of how players analyze performance differences across cars and tracks when tweaking their setups. People who use tools like <a href="https://www.relracing3modapk.com">real racing 3 apk</a> mod do it for the same reason: they want more control, clearer stats and a smoother way to test variations without repeating long grinds. If you look at your dataset with the same mindset, those nested descriptives in JASP can give you the exact clarity you need.
