META-ANALYSIS
PROJECTS

R PACKAGES
There are two R packages for using RVE:
Used for conducting meta-analyses, including t-tests (Fisher, Tipton, & Hou, 2017)
Used with robumeta for conducting F-tests
(Pustejovsky, 2017)

STATA MACROS
There are two Stata macros for using RVE:
Used for conducting meta-analyses, including t-tests
(Hedberg, Pustejovsky, & Tipton, 2017)
Used with robumeta for conducting F-tests
(Tyszler, Pustejovsky, & Tipton, 2017)

We are planning to conduct a 1-week training institute in Chicago, IL each summer (2018-2020) on Advanced Methods in Meta-analysis.
The workshop is funded by the Institute of Education Sciences (PI: Pigott; co-PIs: Beretvas, Polanin, Tipton, & Williams)
