Simple Question!

Post by Bellsie »

Hello,
I hope you are all well.
I have a very simple question!
I need to calculate the average of a column. I can calculate means of each case but I can't calculate the overall mean of a column.
I can't attach my dataset (too heavy)
Please could you help me?
Thank you so very much

Hi Lottie,
I'm not quite sure I understand the problem. If you run descriptives for this column/variable, then you can select to calculate the mean/median/modal average as part of this - and unless you specifically instruct jamovi to calculate these descriptives for subgroups of participants, then the default is to do it for all cases in the column?
