Abstract
We describe a framework to assist processes of analyzing data in our statistical system Jasp. Recent statistical systems provide so many statistical methods that most users have difficulties to master how to use them properly. In addition, users are sometimes in danger of swallowing results from systems without thinking deeply. In order to prevent these problems, we have implemented rules of “condition - action” forms in Jasp classes to express heuristic knowledge for statistical analysis. By using these rules, Jasp can give advice to users about possible statistical analysis procedures and notify problems when they appear. This ability is useful for users, especially for students and novices in statistics or the Jasp system.
