Synopsis
This book presents an overview of the strategies, techniques, and procedures of meta-analysis - the statistical integration of the results of independent studies. In a user-friendly style, Dr. Mullen introduces the rules and procedures of effective meta-analysis integration through the use of a single, meta-analytic database. This database helps to illustrate procedures of data reconstruction, transformation to common statistical metrics, and the application of meta-analytic statistical formulae. The book is conveniently organized to follow the same sequence of steps that one follows in conducting a successful meta-analytic integration. Readers' benefit from the book's presentation of the implicit assumptions and strategies that guide successful meta-analytic integrations: the need to conduct an exhaustive search to include all relevant studies; the methods for precisely extracting the statistical tests of the hypothesis included in the database; and the reasons for using the most defensible indicators of meta-analytic moderators. A revision of Advanced Basic Meta-Analysis, this new edition is now available with a Windows-based meta-analytic database management system. This program allows users to create, modify, and update a database, and perform a full complement of meta-analytic statistics and graphical displays with speed and flexibility. The book and software are independent of one another and can be used separately or in concert with one another. Advanced Basic Meta-Analysis, 2/e provides readers with several unique features: coverage of both introductory and advanced topics; the meta-analytic database management system; coverage of several innovative approaches to testing theory with meta-analysis; and examples of results from both appropriate and inappropriate meta-analytic procedures. This book is ideal for both those who are new to meta-analysis, as well as those familiar with the technique but are interested in learning more about meta-analytic theory testing. Researchers and advanced students in the areas of social, clinical, educational, developmental, community, cross-cultural, and organizational psychology, as well as sociology, social work, criminology, marketing and communications research, public health, epidemiology, economics, and public policy will benefit from this user-friendly overview of the procedure.

Présentation de l'éditeur
In response to the growing emphasis on precision in the summarization and integration of research literature, Advanced BASIC Meta-Analysis presents an overview of strategies, techniques, and procedures used in meta-analysis.
The book and software provide an integrated and comprehensive combination of meta-analytic tools for the statistical integration of independent study results. Advanced BASIC Meta-Analysis has three distinct goals:
* to provide a clear and user-friendly introduction to the procedures and rules of effective meta-analytic integration;
* to present the implicit assumptions and strategies that guide successful meta-analytic integrations; and
* to develop a meta-analytic database management system that allows users to create, modify, and update a database, including the relevant statistical information and predictors, for a given research domain.
The companion software system allows users to perform a full complement of meta-analytic statistical functions with the speed and flexibility of a database management system. It can also construct a wide array of meta-analytic graphic displays. This text and software package serves as a useful introduction to the quantitative assessment of research domains for those new to meta-analyses. It is also a valuable sourcebook for those who have already conducted meta-analyses.
