Abstract
Many experiment-running programs generate output files that require se lection, reduction, and formatting of the raw data before the numbers are suitable for input into statistical packages. PsySquash is a Macin tosh program for the selection, organization, and summary of the tabul ar data that are produced by a widely used freeware data acquisition s ystem, PsyScope. PsySquash serves as a bridge between PsyScope's outpu t data format and the input formats required by common statistical pac kages such as SAS, SPSS, and SuperAnova. An extension of PsySquash is proposed for use with arbitrary tabular data.
