Meta-analyses have quickly become the evidence of choice for researchers in Psychology. This presentation will introduce the methods and practices of meta-analysis, including how to formulate an answerable research question, locate studies, extract data, assess the risk of bias, and choose an appropriate model. In addition to discussing the procedures of meta-analysis, a recent meta-analysis from Psychology will be dissected in order to demonstrate the application of the discussed methods.
