Meta-Analysis: Quantitative Methods for Research Synthesis

By Frederic M. Wolf

Book Overview

Meta-Analysis

shows concisely, yet comprehensively, how to apply statistical methods to achieve a literature review of a common research domain. It demonstrates the use of combined tests and measures of effect size to synthesize quantitatively the results of independent studies for both group differences and correlations. Strengths and weaknesses of alternative approaches, as well as of meta-analysis in general, are presented.
