Sinha Год: 2008 Издание: [не указанo] Страниц: 248 ISBN: 0470290897 * This book combines the authors' experiences on the topic and brings out a wealth of new information relevant to the study of meta-analysis. * Most of the methods described in this book can be understood and applied with a solid master's level background in statistics. * Applications ranging from business to education to environment to health sciences in both univariate and multivariate cases are presented alongside and subservient to theory. * The treatment of the common mean of univariate normal populations, tests of homogeneity, one-way random effects model, categorical data, recovery of inter-block information, and combination of polls is entirely new. * A special feature includes the incorporation of detailed discussions on the computational aspects and related software to carry out statistical meta-analysis in practice.
