Welcome to the new home of state space grids and GridWare!

State Space Grid analysis now part of analysis package!

The State Space Grid book:

State space grids: Depicting dynamics across development. New York: Springer.

State space grids were developed by Marc Lewis and colleagues (Lewis, Lamey & Douglas, 1999 - see Publications tab) as a way to represent synchronous ordinal time series on a 2-D grid. To make this technique freely accessible, we have developed this web site to distribute a software program, GridWare (see GridWare tab below), that creates state space grids from most ordinal or categorical time series.

Any scholarly reference to GridWare should be to:

GridWare

For Windows and Mac OS X.

GridWare is a versatile visualization and data manipulation tool for multivariate time series of sequential (ordinal or categorical) data. The original application was written by Alex Lamey, and is based on the work of Marc Lewis and colleagues, who devised state space grids based on dynamic systems principles. It is recommended that new users read the GridWare manual and Hollenstein (2007) (see Publications tab) before setting up data for GridWare.

There are now 3 programs that can be downloaded (from the GridWare Download tab below):

  1. GridWare 1.1 is the original program [GridWare Manual PDF, (PDF, 1.2 MB)] which has also been translated into Spanish by J. Carola Perez 厂罢础罢贰-厂笔贰颁贰-骋搁滨顿冲贰厂笔础脩翱尝.辫诲蹿 (PDF, 2.4 MB)

  2. GridWare 1.15(beta) is a recently revised form of the program that includes measures of entropy and transitional propensities 鈥 however, this is a beta version and there may be bugs so check results carefully. Explanation of Entropy and Transitional Propensities Calculations (PDF, 114 KB)

Excel Macros

Excel macros for working with TRJ files. Our team (Ellen O鈥橠onoghue, Kate Jackson, Samantha Goldsmith, Jordan Theriault, Effie Pereira, Jess Lougheed, and Tom Hollenstein) has created many macros over the years. Kate Jackson and Samantha Goldsmith have compiled these and made them usable for the general public. These macros handle graphing, preparation of time series (e.g., combining psychophysiological data with observational data in TRJ format), appending TRJs into one long file, creating new variables within TRJs, correlations among state variables within TRJs, file naming, and conversion from Noldus Observer鈥檚 XML format to TRJ.

These are all contained in one zipped file (newest version October 22, 2015): Macro-Catalogue2.zip (Zip file, 4.3 MB)

Please contact Tom Hollenstein with any problems downloading or using these macros.
