20 March, 2003
Latest version of SigmaStat complements award-winning SigmaPlot technical graphics software
SigmaStat 3.0 is the statistical software package that enables users to perform effective and accurate statistical analysis and interpretation without being a statistics expert.
For the thousands of researchers using SPSS’ SigmaPlot graphing software in industries such as life sciences, medical research, pharmacology, chemistry and environmental sciences, SigmaStat offers users access to the most common statistics required in research without requiring advanced statistical knowledge.
SigmaStat is unique in the marketplace because of its ability to guide users step-by-step through analysis, from picking the appropriate technique, to checking assumptions in the data, to reporting the results in plain-English. Used together, SigmaStat and SigmaPlot offer a comprehensive and easy to use toolkit for statistics, curve-fitting and regression and publication-quality graphics and reports.
For current SigmaStat users, the latest release of SigmaStat provides a critical link to SigmaPlot, which enables:
- Access to SigmaPlot files in SigmaStat; access to SigmaStat files in SigmaPlot (requires latest versions)
- Access to SigmaPlot's advanced graph-editing features, including:
- SigmaPlot's graph properties dialog, for modifying any object in the graph
- SigmaPlot 8.0's new toolbar palettes, which allow users to selectively edit objects such as bars or lines or individual points in a scatterplot, or allow the editing of multiple items simultaneously
- SigmaPlot 8.0's new text formatting toolbar, which enables on-page text editing
SigmaStat 3.0 also includes significant new or upgraded features, including:
- Survival analysis using Kaplan-Meier (product limit) method to estimate the survival function of subjects followed over time, such as cancer studies. Survival curve options include error bars, confidence intervals, display censored or failure values, color schemes
- New report page with improved page and keyboard controls; ability to export reports to .HTML or .PDF formats
- New data worksheet with more flexibility to work with larger data sets
- Improvements in graphing data such as new data format options, automatic graph legends and more symbols

"For those conducting clinical, medical or environmental research, the ability to quickly and clearly make sense of data sets is critical to finding discoveries and taking action," said Ken Kirsten, senior product manager, SPSS science products. "SigmaStat empowers these researchers with the analytics that enable them to make predictions without advanced statistical knowledge."
