Subject: [R-meta] Question about rma(measure = "COR", ..)
Dear all,
while conducting a meta-analysis I asked myself a few questions.
a)When I'm conduction a random effects meta-analysis with correlation-coefficients as effects sizes using
rma(measure = "COR", ri = corr, ni = n, data = data)
, does R conduct the analysis with Fisher's-z-transformed coefficients in the background and compute the main-effect results back into the r metric for the output or not?
b) Or should I use rma(measure="ZCOR", ri = corr, ni = n, data = data), and conduct the main result back by myown at the end?
In the second version the Trim and Fill method doesn't make any sense.
I would be glad about some support.
Sincerely,
Maria
