Adding Results to a Meta-Analysis: Theory and Example.
Willson, Victor L.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v21 n6 p649-58 Sep 1984
Describes methods designed to add new studies to published meta-analysis results, focusing on a procedure using Bayesian analysis and showing how new findings complement previous meta-analysis and extend its conclusions. Also considers how studies are to be weighted, which variables are to be examined, and how often meta-analyses are to be updated. (Author/JN)
