A Bayesian Semi-Parametric Model for Random Effects Meta-Analysis
In meta-analysis there is an increasing trend to explicitly acknowledge the presence of study variability through random effects models. That is, one assumes that for each study, there is a study-specific effect and one is observing an estimate of this latent variable. In a random effects model, one assumes that these study-specific effects come from some distribution, and one can estimate the ...
متن کاملPower analysis for random-effects meta-analysis
One of the reasons for the popularity of meta-analysis is the notion that these analyses will possess more power to detect effects than individual studies. This is inevitably the case under a fixed-effect model. However, the inclusion of the between-study variance in the random-effects model, and the need to estimate this parameter, can have unfortunate implications for this power. We develop m...
متن کاملAn alternative pseudolikelihood method for multivariate random-effects meta-analysis
Recently, multivariate random-effects meta-analysis models have received a great deal of attention, despite its greater complexity compared to univariate meta-analyses. One of its advantages is its ability to account for the within-study and between-study correlations. However, the standard inference procedures, such as the maximum likelihood or maximum restricted likelihood inference, require ...
متن کاملSequential methods for random-effects meta-analysis
Although meta-analyses are typically viewed as retrospective activities, they are increasingly being applied prospectively to provide up-to-date evidence on specific research questions. When meta-analyses are updated account should be taken of the possibility of false-positive findings due to repeated significance tests. We discuss the use of sequential methods for meta-analyses that incorporat...
متن کاملA Bayesian Nominal Regression Model with Random Effects for Analysing Tehran Labor Force Survey Data
Large survey data are often accompanied by sampling weights that reflect the inequality probabilities for selecting samples in complex sampling. Sampling weights act as an expansion factor that, by scaling the subjects, turns the sample into a representative of the community. The quasi-maximum likelihood method is one of the approaches for considering sampling weights in the frequentist framewo...
