WINKS is an economical, reliable and simple to use statistical analysis tool designed to help students and researchers get the statistical answers they need.
WINKS contains a wide range of statistical tests including many handy features not found in programs such as SPSS or SAS -- for example, easy analysis from summary data (as well as from raw data), nonparametric multiple comparisons, APA standard analysis write-ups and more.
The newest features include Grubbs Test for outliers and Tukey Test for outliers, Kwikstat Data Generator evaluation edition, multiple comparisons in 2xc and rx2 crosstabulation (Chi-Square) analysis) & Permutations and combinations calculator.
Statistical test such as t-tests (paired t test, independent group t test/unpaired t test), ANOVA, regression, correlation, repeated measures, logistic regression, times series analysis, chi-square, Bland-Altman, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney and much more.
Friendly interface with easy Excel-like data handling & graphs (reads and writes Excel files.)
Recent updates include:
- Added ability to calculate new column of z-scores for numeric variables.
- Increased maximum groups to 40 for one-way ANOVA and one-way repeated measures (40 repeats).
- Added editor option to create indicator variables from categorical variables.
- Added Outcomes and Probabilities module that calculates combinations and permutations.
- Added Grubbs & Tukey tests for outliers.
- Added Multiple Comparisons of Proportions to Crosstabulations procedures for 2xc or rx2 tables
- Updates are free to current users.

What's New in WINKS SDA 7?
New features in Version 7
All WINKS Version 6 data files work with WINKS SDA 7. WINKS SDA 7 runs on Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit) and on all other recent releases of Windows. (Vista, XP, etc) The new WINKS 7 maintains all of the current features users have come to rely on, plus new enhancements that make data analysis easier and quicker.
Limited variable labels
Extensive variable labels: For example define BMI= Body Mass Index so the label will appear in output rather than the variable name.
No variable formats
Define variable formats: For example format GENDER to 1=Male and 2=Female, so Male and Female appear in output rather than 1 and 2.
More intuitive data entry and cell editing.
Menu specified data calculations:
- z-score (by group)
- square root
- natural log
