Joshua B. Gilbert; James Soland – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
Differences in effect sizes between researcher developed (RD) and independently developed (ID) outcome measures are widely documented but poorly understood in education research. We conduct a meta-analysis using item-level outcome data to test potential mechanisms that explain differences in effects by RD or ID outcome type. Our analysis of 45…

Tolga Erdogan; Begum Serim-Yildiz; Joy J. Burnham; Stefanie A. Wind – British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, 2024
Children's fears have received scholarly attention for well over 50 years. A considerable amount of literature has focused on such fear variables as fear intensity and fear prevalence scores and age and gender differences. We used meta-analysis to systematically review the findings related to gender differences in children's fear intensity scores…

Reza Norouzian; Zhouhan Jin; Stuart Webb – Modern Language Journal, 2025
Meta-analytic studies of second language (L2) learning typically employ a classic approach to meta-analysis. Although the classic approach can clarify findings, a multivariate, multilevel meta-analysis (3M) approach increases transparency by accounting for (a) dependencies in the evidence presented by primary studies, (b) methodological…

Mariola Moeyaert; Panpan Yang; Yukang Xue – Journal of Experimental Education, 2024
We have entered an era in which scientific evidence increasingly informs research practice and policy. As there is an exponential increase in the use of single-case experimental designs (SCEDs) to evaluate intervention effectiveness, there is accumulating evidence available for quantitative synthesis. Consequently, there is a growing interest in…

Xinyan Lu; Xudong Zheng – Educational Technology & Society, 2025
The adoption of the maker-centered method is gaining popularity in K-12 school curricula. However, a unified consensus on its effectiveness in enhancing K-12 students' learning outcomes remains elusive. Therefore, the purpose of this meta-analysis was to synthesize the findings on the overall effects of the maker-centered learning method on K-12…

Zeng, Songtian; Zhao, Hongxia; Hu, Xiaoyi; Pereira, Brittany A.; Pan, Qichao; Meng, Chen; Reyes, Arazeliz; Stone-MacDonald, Angela – Psychology in the Schools, 2022
Although numerous meta-analyses of single-case design (SCD) research have been published, no systematic review has been conducted to holistically reveal the trends in content focus, and the state-of-the-art practices in conducting SCD meta-analyses for school-aged students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study synthesized the…

Ha, Cheyeon – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2023
This study aims to introduce network meta-analysis (NMA) to provide educational researchers with an extended view of the reviewing educational research. Meta-analytic methods have been widely used in educational research reviews. However, weaknesses have emerged in the multi-group comparison analysis of educational studies where different…

Thomas Cook; Mansi Wadhwa; Jingwen Zheng – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2023
Context: A perennial problem in applied statistics is the inability to justify strong claims about cause-and-effect relationships without full knowledge of the mechanism determining selection into treatment. Few research designs other than the well-implemented random assignment study meet this requirement. Researchers have proposed partial…

Shimonovich, Michal; Pearce, Anna; Thomson, Hilary; Katikireddi, Srinivasa Vittal – Research Synthesis Methods, 2022
In fields (such as population health) where randomised trials are often lacking, systematic reviews (SRs) can harness diversity in study design, settings and populations to assess the evidence for a putative causal relationship. SRs may incorporate causal assessment approaches (CAAs), sometimes called 'causal reviews', but there is currently no…

Prathiba Natesan Batley; Erica B. McClure; Brandy Brewer; Ateka A. Contractor; Nicholas John Batley; Larry Vernon Hedges; Stephanie Chin – Grantee Submission, 2023
N-of-1 trials, a special case of Single Case Experimental Designs (SCEDs), are prominent in clinical medical research and specifically psychiatry due to the growing significance of precision/personalized medicine. It is imperative that these clinical trials be conducted, and their data analyzed, using the highest standards to guard against threats…

John Deke; Mariel Finucane; Dan Thal – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
Background/Context: Methodological background: Meta-analysis typically depends on the assumption that true effects follow the normal distribution. While assuming normality of effect "estimates" is often supported by a central limit theorem, normality for the distribution of interventions' "true" effects is a computational…

Kun Yan; Li Wei; Kaiming Bu; Jiahui Zhang – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2024
Although most gifted education programs have included undergraduate research (UGR) in their training plans, scholars have not reached a consensus on UGR's effectiveness, especially for gifted college students. With a sample of 7460 students from 15 studies conducted worldwide during 1985-2022, this study explores the relationship between research…

Maxfield, Trevor; Park, Eun-Young; Blair, Kwang-Sun Cho – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2023
This study synthesized 14 published and unpublished group design and single-case design studies on bullying interventions for individuals with disabilities. The specific objectives were to examine the general characteristics and design qualities of the studies, quantify the magnitude of the intervention effects, and identify potential moderating…

St.; Sylvester, Anne-Marie; Villette, Lexa; Watson, Kristin; Wary, Samantha; West, Caroline; Williams, Dorrie; Yu, Candice – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2023
Articles published in 22 counseling journals from 2010-2019 were compared on 26 author and article characteristics. Women now constitute majorities of authorship and counseling journals are publishing larger proportions of research articles, 63% of which used quantitative approaches and about 11% of which studied counseling interventions.

Boers, Frank; Bryfonski, Lara; Faez, Farahnaz; McKay, Todd – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
Meta-analytic reviews collect available empirical studies on a specified domain and calculate the average effect of a factor. Educators as well as researchers exploring a new domain of inquiry may rely on the conclusions from meta-analytic reviews rather than reading multiple primary studies. This article calls for caution in this regard because…
