Methods of MetaAnalysis Correcting Error and Bias in Research Findings
Author: John E. Hunter, Frank L. Schmidt

"Methods of Meta-Analysis represents the best compilation to date on this relatively new method of statistically aggregating the results of large numbers of independently conducted social and behavioral science." --Bruce A. Thyer, University of Georgia "Required reading for anyone who wishes to keep abreast of developments in meta-analysis. The ... more »authors have been among the chief contributors to the literature on meta-analysis, both as methodologists and practitioners, and are therefore important spokespersons in this area. . . . Coverage of the book's topics is exceptional, both extensively and intensively. . . . The Hunter-Schmidt method is a powerful and thoroughly conceived approach to meta-analysis, and examining it necessarily introduces the main issues facing any effort at research integration." --Robert Bangert-Drowns, State University of New York at Albany "Methods of Meta-Analysis . . . is more comprehensive than Hunter and Schmidt's 1982 book and presents many new developments and methods in meta-analysis. Appendixes include computer programs for meta-analysis using PCs or compatibles." --The Score (American Psychological Association, Division 5) "The authors of the present text have been among the most forceful and prolific advocates of meta-analysis. Both in the earlier edition and in the present, greatly expanded sequel, they argue persuasively that pre-meta-analytic views of research have seriously retarded the accumulation of knowledge in social science. The book makes important reading for meta-analysts and social scientists." --Journal of the American Statistical Association Meta-analysis is revolutionizing the process of developing cumulative knowledge in the social sciences--and in finance, medicine, and other disciplines. It has essentially created a new epistemology. The use of meta-analysis has expanded exponentially in most research literature in recent years. This book is the most comprehensive treatment to date of modern meta-analysis methods available. John E. Hunter and Frank L. Schmidt--both recognized experts in meta-analysis--present clear and detailed descriptions of meta-analysis methods, with extensive examples that clarify the applications of these methods. New methods for correcting statistical artifacts not previously addressed are presented for both correlational and experimental studies. Other features of Methods of Meta-Analysis includes:
