Manual

Post by Farscape »

I just came across your wonderful software recently and want to make it known in my dept physical medicine and rehab as they want to move away from spss and learning R for physicians is out of the questions. But I was wondering if you have manuals for the meta analyses and the GLM modules since people in my department do a lot of logistic/multinomial regression and meta-analyses. I think even something basic would be good for people to get acclimated with the software.

Hi @Farscape,
Have you already looked into the Jamovi modules library?
If you did not, install GAMLj by @mcfanda and take a look here:

https://mcfanda.github.io/gamlj_docs/index.html

Cheers, Maurizio.

There is the user manual that is found on the jamovi website.

https://www.jamovi.org/user-manual.html

It covers most of the basic aspects of the application. Hope that helps.

Hi
I've just pushed a multinomial analysis example in jamovi GAMLj that might be useful.

@ kylehamilton

thanks, today I pointed phd students at my dep. to your new module, which is great. My experience is that people like worked-out examples (mostly because they do not study the theory :-). Please post when you have some new how-to.

If I can get some alone time this weekend I'll try to get a first draft up for people to give feedback on. Did you use anything special to make your documentation? Or was it all html/markdown?

Hi
you can check out https://github.com/mcfanda/gamlj_docs. It's essentially a Rmarkdown website that you write in Rmarkdown, push it to github ***_docs repository and link your *** repository page to it. Check out the _site.yaml file for the site structure and "newversion.R" for rendering (ignore the "push it to github" part there because it depends on local setup". /docssource contains the Rmd and the /docs contains the html to be shown on github.io
