Meta Analysis Research: a how to guide (Research Methods)

- Export as iCalendar
Location: Microsoft Teams

A meta-analysis is a statistical analysis that combines the results of multiple scientific studies. Meta-analyses can be performed when multiple scientific studies are addressing the same research question. This workshop will provide you with an overview of meta-analysis and how to conduct one in your own PhD. We will also cover, the most common methods for conducting a meta-analysis as well as common issues that may be encountered. By the end of the course, you should be able to plan and conduct a meta-analysis of your own to answer a research question in your field of study and interpret the results of meta-analyses published in journal articles.

Research Methods Series: A standalone series, but also to support our understanding of research integrity & ethics; the research methods series will give overviews of qualitative and quantitative or mixed methods; why some researchers will adopt certain methods; and why some approaches are more suitable than others. The sessions will provide general ideas; signposts to follow up on specific areas; the positives and negatives of different approaches. You will need to speak to your department for full research methodology training in your chosen practice.

You can attend the whole series or just pick the ones of specific interest.
