Learn how to plan and conduct a meta-analysis from start to finish through applied examples. This comprehensive workshop is designed to replace weekend seminars many people pay for. We cover everything from planning your first meta-analysis through understanding the statistics involved, running the analyses in R, and writing up your results. The entire video is time-stamped at major points so you can easily jump back into relevant sections.
Note: The AIDE software has been fixed since this video was filmed 😊
