Huynh, Cam-Loi – 1989
Parametric measures to estimate J. Cohen's effect size (1966) from a single experiment or for a single study in meta-analysis are investigated. The main objective was to examine the principal statistical properties of this effect size--delta--under variance homogeneity, variance heterogeneity with known variance ratios, and for the Behrens-Fisher…

Tracz, Susan M.; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1992
Effects of violating the independence assumption when combining correlation coefficients in a meta-analysis were studied. This Monte-Carlo simulation varied sample size, predictor number, population intercorrelation among predictors, and population correlation between predictors and criterion. Combining statistics from nonindependent data in a…

Harwell, Michael R.; And Others – Journal of Educational Statistics, 1992
Implications of metanalytic results from Monte Carlo studies of the robustness of the F test in the one- and two-factor fixed effects analysis of variance (ANOVA) models and Monte Carlo results for the B. L. Welch (1947) and Kruskal-Wallis (1952) tests are discussed. (SLD)

Harwell, Michael R. – Journal of Educational Statistics, 1992
A methodological framework is provided for quantitatively integrating Type I error rates and power values for Monte Carlo studies. An example is given using Monte Carlo studies of a test of equality of variances, and the importance of relating metanalytic results to exact statistical theory is emphasized. (SLD)

Harwell, Michael R. – 1990
Monte Carlo studies of statistical tests are prominently featured in the methodological research literature. Unfortunately, the information from these studies does not appear to have significantly influenced methodological practice in educational and psychological research. One reason is that Monte Carlo studies lack an overarching theory to guide…

Tracz, Susan M.; Elmore, Patricia B. – 1985
Meta-analysis is a technique for combining the summary statistics from previously conducted research studies to indicate the direction of results and provide an index of the magnitude of effect size. This paper focuses on the effect of the violation of the assumption of independence (that the value of any included statistic is in no way…

Keselman, Joanne C.; And Others – 1993
Meta-analytic methods were used to summarize results of Monte Carlo (MC) studies investigating the robustness of various statistical procedures for testing within-subjects effects in split-plot repeated measures designs. Through a literature review, accessible MC studies were identified, and characteristics (simulation factors) and outcomes (rates…
