Beschreibung |
Meta-analysis, the ‘analysis of analyses’, is the term used to describe methods for numerically synthesizing multiple sources of scientific evidence about the same hypothesis. As a systematic and quantitative summary of evidence, meta-analysis has the potential to provide a more powerful and comprehensive description of the current state of knowledge in a particular field and, for this reason, has become an increasingly important tool for researchers in the past decade. This course will introduce students to the fundamentals of meta-analysis and provide an in-depth review of tools for conducting meta-analyses in the R language. After completion of this course, users will know when and how to apply standard methods of meta- analysis in R and will also have gained more experience with advanced R programming topics, such as function writing and reproducible reporting.
For all Zurich R Courses participants should bring their own laptops to the course and will be informed by email in advance which packages they need to install. |
