Handbook of Meta-Analysis in Ecology and Evolution
Meta-analysis is a powerful statistical methodology for synthesizing research evidence across independent studies. The handbook identifies both the advantages of using meta-analysis for research synthesis and the potential pitfalls and limitations of meta-analysis (including when it should not be used). This is the first comprehensive handbook of meta-analysis written specifically for ecologists and evolutionary biologists, and it provides an invaluable introduction for beginners as well as an up-to-date guide for experienced meta-analysts.The chapters, written by renowned experts, walk readers through every step of meta-analysis, from problem formulation to the presentation of the results.
Different approaches to carrying out a meta-analysis are described, and include moment and least-square, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian approaches, all illustrated using worked examples
