GSEQ Version 5.1. This version runs in Windows 95 or later. It
includes new algorithms for computing interobserver agreement, both for
event and timed-event sequential data, which are described in:
Bakeman, R., Quera, V., & Gnisci, A. (2009).
Observer agreement for timed-event sequential data: A comparison of
time-based and event-based algorithms. Behavior Research Methods,
41 (1), 137-147.
Quera, V., Bakeman, R., & Gnisci, A. (2007). Observer agreement for
event sequences: Methods and software for sequence alignment and
reliability estimates. Behavior Research Methods, 39 (1),
39-49.
- Download GSEQ 5.1 from Georgia State University, USA.
- Download GSEQ 5.1 from Universitat de Barcelona, Spain.
- After downloading, run the setup file to install the program. Thereafter, to run GSEQ, click Start > Programs > GSEQ5 > GSEQ 5.1, or click on the GSEQ desktop icon.
Older GSEQ versions: Previous Windows and DOS versions are no longer available and supported.
More software:
ActSds (Mangold's INTERACT to
SDIS converter): ActSds converts Mangold's INTERACT data files, various
versions, into SDIS files that can be subsequently analyzed by GSEQ.
Runs in Windows 95 or later. For information about INTERACT, visit Mangold
International site. ActSds is described in:
Bakeman, R., & Quera. V. (2008). ActSds and OdfSds: Programs for converting INTERACT and The Observer data files into SDIS timed-event sequential data files. Behavior Research Methods, 40 (3), 869-872.
- Download ActSds (Version 3.0, April 2011) from Georgia State University, USA.
- Download ActSds (Version 3.0, April 2011) from Universitat de Barcelona, Spain.
- After downloading, copy file ActSds.ZIP to a temporary directory. The ZIP file contains the executable, ActSds.EXE, and a PDF file describing the program. Extract both files to a directory of your choice using WinZip or similar.
OdfSds and ObsTxtSds
(Noldus' The Observer to SDIS converter): OdfSds converts Version 5 and
earlier, and ObsTxtSds Version 6 and later, Noldus' The Observer data
files into SDIS files that can be subsequently analyzed by GSEQ.
Runs in Windows 95 or later. For information about The Observer, visit Noldus Information
Technology site. OdfSds is described in:
Bakeman, R., & Quera. V. (2008). ActSds and OdfSds: Programs for converting INTERACT and The Observer data files into SDIS timed-event sequential data files. Behavior Research Methods, 40 (3), 869-872.
- Download ObsTxtSds (Version 3.0, April 2011) from Georgia State University, USA.
- Download OdfSds from Georgia State University, USA.
- Download ObsTxtSds (Version 3.0, April 2011) from Universitat de Barcelona, Spain.
- Download OdfSds from Universitat de Barcelona, Spain.
- After downloading, copy file OdfTxtSds.ZIP or OdfSds.ZIP to a temporary directory. The ZIP file contains the executables, either OdfSds.EXE or ObsTxtSds.EXE, and a PDF file describing the program. Extract the files to a directory of your choice using WinZip or similar.
ILOG: A standalone program for log-linear analysis. Log-linear
analysis can be useful for analyzing event sequential data in
particular, as described in Chapter 11 of Bakeman and Quera (2011).
GSEQ's Export N-way table utility writes files than can be read
directly by ILOG. The current version is ILOG 3; an earrlier DOS
version was described in:
Bakeman, R., & Robinson, B. F. (1994). Understanding log-linear analysis with ILOG: An interactive approach. Hillsdale, NJ: Erlbaum.
- Download ILOG 3 from Georgia State University, USA.
- Download ILOG 3 from Universitat de Barcelona, Spain.
- After downloading, copy file ILOG3.ZIP to a temporary directory. The ZIP file contains the executable, ILOG3.EXE and a PDF file describing the program. Extract the files using Winzip or similar.
ELign: A standalone program for
aligning event sequential data by means of dynamic programming
algorithms, and computing an alignment kappa. Note that the ELign
algorithm is included in GSEQ 5 as well; using GSEQ 5 for aligning
event sequences and computing Kappa is easier than using ELign. Runs in
Windows 95 or later. Described in:
Quera, V., Bakeman, R., & Gnisci, A. (2007). Observer agreement for event sequences: Methods and software for sequence alignment and reliability estimates. Behavior Research Methods, 39 (1), 39-49.
- Download ELign from Georgia State University, USA.
- Download ELign from Universitat de Barcelona, Spain.
- After downloading, copy file ELIGN.ZIP to a temporary directory. The ZIP file contains the executable, ELIGN.EXE, plus several sample SDIS data files. Extract the files using Winzip or similar.
