"Clearly written and compellingly argued, this book explains the
procedures and benefits of correcting for measurement error and
range restriction and details the methodological developments in
meta-analysis over the last decade. No one should consider
conducting a meta-analysis without first reading this book. It is
essential reading for all scientists." -Michael A. McDaniel,
Virginia Commonwealth University "A book that will certainly appeal
not only to the students, but will also be a great reference source
for the technically sophisticated professional. The breadth and
depth of the coverage, not to mention the novelty and clarity of
writing, makes this book a classic in the field. It covers (and at
times introduces) many novel issues that will be in the forefront
for some years to come-as such a must read for all meta-analysts."
-Vish C. Viswesvaran, Ph.D., Director of I/O Program, Florida
International University Meta-analysis is arguably the most
important methodological innovation in the social and behavioral
sciences in the last 25 years. Developed to offer researchers an
informative account of which methods are most useful in integrating
research findings across studies, this book will enable the reader
to apply, as well as understand, meta-analytic methods. Rather than
taking an encyclopedic approach, the authors have focused on
carefully developing those techniques that are most applicable to
social science research, and have given a general conceptual
description of more complex and rarely-used techniques. Fully
revised and updated, Methods of Meta-Analysis, Second Edition is
the most comprehensive text on meta-analysis available today. New
to the Second Edition: * An evaluation of fixed versus random
effects models for meta-analysis * New methods for correcting for
indirect range restriction in meta-analysis * New developments in
corrections for measurement error * A discussion of a new
Windows-based program package for applying the meta-analysis
methods presented in the book * A presentation of the theories of
data underlying different approaches to meta-analysis
