jjstatsplot

A wrapper for ggstatsplot: jjstatsplot help researchers to generate plots in jamovi based on ggstatsplot package. Also includes additional plots

Statistical Visualization Made Simple

jjstatsplot brings the power of ggstatsplot to jamovi, making publication-ready statistical visualizations accessible through an intuitive point-and-click interface. This R package bridges the gap between sophisticated statistical plotting and user-friendly data analysis, enabling researchers to create informative plots enriched with statistical details without writing code.

🎯 Why jjstatsplot?

Traditional statistical software often separates visualization from analysis, requiring users to manually annotate plots with statistical results. jjstatsplot integrates these steps, automatically adding appropriate statistical tests, effect sizes, and sample sizes to your visualizations. Whether you're exploring data distributions, comparing groups, examining correlations, or analyzing categorical relationships, jjstatsplot provides the right visualization with the right statistics—all through jamovi's familiar interface.

📦 Installation

For jamovi Users

1. Open jamovi
2. Go to Modules → jamovi library
3. Search for "jjstatsplot"
4. Click Install

For R Users

```r

Install from GitHub (latest development version)

if (!require(devtools)) install.packages("devtools") devtools::install_github("sbalci/jjstatsplot")

Load the package

library(jjstatsplot) ```

🏃 Quick Start

In jamovi

1. Open your dataset in jamovi
2. Navigate to the Analyses tab
