Subject: [R-meta] A rather general question study/effect size ratio
Hello All,
All else equal, would it be more desirable to have (A) 40 studies each
with two estimates of effect size or (B) 20 studies each with 4
estimates of effect size?
My intuition is that (A) is more desirable than (B).
Would it also be more desirable to have (C) 80 studies each with 1
estimate of effect size over (A) and (B)?
ps. By "desirable" I mean higher generalizability to the target population.
Thank you,
Fred
