Harrison, Sean; Jones, Hayley E.; Martin, Richard M.; Lewis, Sarah J.; Higgins, Julian P. T. – Research Synthesis Methods, 2017
Meta-analyses combine the results of multiple studies of a common question. Approaches based on effect size estimates from each study are generally regarded as the most informative. However, these methods can only be used if comparable effect sizes can be computed from each study, and this may not be the case due to variation in how the studies…
