Meta-analysis

[Sosipatros Boikos]

Hi. I am in NIH and I want to start a meta-analysis project.

I wonder if I can do this with SPSS (I quess I need a syntax for this:)

Is it any website online with quidlines for meta-analysis?

Thanks,

Sosipatros Boikos

Hi,



you can use the macros written by Wilson (Lipsey, M.W., & Wilson, D. B. (2000). Practical Meta-Analysis.). You can find them under http://mason.gmu.edu/~dwilsonb/ma.html. Also, you can visit Raynold Levesques great Web-Page, http://www.spsstools.net/SampleSyntax.htm#MetaAnalysis. I would recommend the tools by Wilson.


Guido

First: any serious meta-analysis should be done with commercial and well
validated programs.After having said that, I would like to recommend you
my meta-analysis macros for SPSS. You can find them at SPSS Developer
Central:

http://www.spss.com/devcentral/index.cfm?pg=downloadDet&dId=35

(if requested to login, use Guest both as user and password).

They are a more advanced version of the code other list users
recommended you (http://www.spsstools.net/SampleSyntax.htm#MetaAnalysis).

Some example datasets are included and extensive checks have been run to
verify their accuracy. A reference for one of the best meta-analysis
book I've read is also given with the documentation.

Use this list to ask me any question concerning their use (or the e-mail
address I'm using right now) because I'm experiencing problems with the
contact email given at the page ([hidden email] is out of order
for the moment).

I hope you like them. If you publish anything using them, please give me
some credit ;)

A good meta-analysis site (including a nice freeware program and an
online book):

Hi,

The SPSS add-on Zumastat www.zumastat.com can perform meta-analyses on a
range of different effect sizes.

Cheers,

Paul
