Subject: [R-meta] Meta analysis of epidemiological studies. Combining regression coefficients (beta-values)
In-Reply-To: <YQBPR0101MB45055B69145EDB44ECB085808336A@YQBPR0101MB4505.CANPRD01.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM>

Dear Rasheda,

You might want to take a look at this article:

Aloe, A. M., & Thompson, C. G. (2013). The synthesis of partial effect sizes. Journal of the Society for Social Work and Research, 4(4), 390-405. https://doi.org/10.5243/jsswr.2013.24

and the help page for escalc() in the metafor package:

https://wviechtb.github.io/metafor/reference/escalc.html#partial-and-semi-partial-correlations

and this example dataset:

https://wviechtb.github.io/metadat/reference/dat.aloe2013.html

These methods are equally applicable to epidemiological studies.

Best,
Wolfgang
