Methods of Meta-analysis

Developed to offer researchers an account of which methods are most useful in integrating research findings across studies, this book will enable readers to apply meta-analytic methods. The authors focus on carefully developing those techniques most applicable to social science research, and give a general conceptual description of more complex and rarely-used techniques. They review all the meta-analytic methods that have been proposed for cumulating knowledge across studies, including the narrative review and the averaging of quantitative outcome measures. They also cover error of measurement and range variation.Hunter, John E. is the author of 'Methods of Meta-analysis' with ISBN 9780803932227 and ISBN 0803932227.
