Hi All,
I performed a random-effect summary meta-analysis where study was used as a random effect. Here, I used the rma.mv function using the Fisher's r-to-z transformed correlation coefficient effect size (see code below).
CODE: results=rma.mv(yi,vi,data=datum,method="REML",random=~1|Study)
I can use then use the below code to create funnel and forest plots.
CODE: forest(results)
CODE: funnel(results)
The x axis for these plots would be my effect size (Fisher's r-to-z transformed correlation coefficient). My question is, what must I do in order to back transform my Fisher's r-to-z transformed correlation coefficient here in the plots so that they are displayed as the Pearson's correlation coefficient (r).
Thanks,
John
