Practical Meta-Analysis

Rating:
Summary: Excellent Source Book
Review: I just completed a meta-analytic study for my master's thesis, and I could not have done it without this book. The authors take very complex topics and procedures and describe them in clear, concise terms. I often used this book to help me interpret the dense text found in other books on meta-analysis, such as Hunter and Schmidt's Methods of Meta-Analysis. I also found the book helpful because it provided concrete guidelines for such issues as selecting criteria for study inclusion and developing categories for coding studies.
