[Nfb-science] Help! Jaws and stats

[cheryl fogle]

Amin,

I'm using SPSS 15 with Jaws--though I'm far from an expert it appears to
work.  There's a demo available for download from spss.com and after you
install there's a help topic on screen reader access. You'd have better
support if you use the program your classmates and particularly your
professors are using.  If your college has a statistics lab or clinic, you
might be able to ask for stats help.  I'm providing some information that
I've saved from the blind math list.

"
For SPSS version 14, download jaws scripts from here.

You need to install something known as "Java Access Bridge". The purpose of
JAB is to render java based applications accessible to a degree. After that,
follow the steps given in this page.

Subject: [Nfb-science] Help! Jaws and stats

Hi,

I am a college student taking a class that requires me to use a software
statistical package to process large amounts of data. The majority of the
class will be using SPSS. I am wondering if anyone knows what statistical
software works well with Jaws. I am especially interested in SAS or SPSS.
I have herd that SPSS works ok if a jaws script is installed, but I am not
sure how updated the script is, and if it is caught up with the newest
version of SPSS (V 17 I believe).
I have also herd that SAS works very well with jaws from some Google
searches, but I am still skeptical about this.

Respectfully,

Amin
