Important

If you are not familiar with R, you can access the core features of this package on your web browser on its dedicated website (https://metaConvert.org/).

Introduction

This package automatically estimates 14 effect size measures from a well-formatted dataset. It is also the official implementation of the metaDETECT framework, that aims to limit the errors in data extraction and effect size computation for meta-analyses. Various other functions can help, for example, removing dependency between several effect sizes, or identifying differences between two datasets.

This package is mainly designed to assist in conducting a systematic review with a meta-analysis but can be useful to any researcher interested in estimating an effect size.

Installation

You can install the released version of metaConvert from CRAN with:

install.packages("metaConvert")

Citation

The metaConvert package was written by Corentin J Gosling, Samuele Cortese, Marco Solmi, Belen Haza, Eduard Vieta, Richard Delorme, Paolo Fusar-Poli and Joaquim Radua. It is licensed under the GNU General Public License.
