Data Services provides services for NYU patrons using a variety of quantitative analysis software packages.
Get started by selecting the software you are interested in above.
The best way to request an individual consultation is via our appointment form, which will ensure that the appropriate consultant can meet with you at the time you requested. However, our consultants are also available on a walk-in basis during our open hours.
You may also send us your questions via email at data.services@nyu.edu. Most e-mails will be answered within one business day (messages received on Friday will not be answered until Monday).
Our role is to facilitate your quantitative analysis within the realm of our supported software packages (i.e., SPSS, Stata, SAS, R, and MATLAB). We can assist you with issues that you may encounter with respect to data preparation (importing, merging, and cleaning data), analysis (implementing statistical tests), and results (understanding the formatting of the output). We can also help you select the best package for your task, interpret error messages, and locate documentation and further resources.
In addition to providing regularly scheduled software-specific tutorials, we can also help instructors by providing classroom presentations to introduce statistical software.
Our role is to assist you with your analysis, rather than to conduct analyses for you. It is the researcher's responsibility to ensure that the research design, analysis, and programming are justified and appropriate for the discipline at hand.
