[R-meta] confidence interval very large

Hi folks, I am using conf_int to calculate the confidence interval but the results showed the confidence interval are very large. For example, I have a mean estimate 0.1655 with a SE of 0.3014 (df = 1), but the 95% confidence interval is [-3.659, 3.990]. Is this correct? [...]
Looks like it is. I get similar values calculating the CI using base R: 0.1655 + c(-1, 1) * 0.3014 * qt(0.975, df = 1) Best, Guido
