Random-effects (DerSimonian-Laird) meta-analytic pooling

Usage

random_effects_meta(
  estimates,
  standard_errors,
  confidence = 0.95,
  method = "DL"
)

Arguments

estimates

Numeric vector of effect-size estimates.

standard_errors

Numeric vector of SEs.

confidence

Confidence level. Default 0.95.

method

Tau^2 estimator. Only "DL" implemented.

Value

A morie_effect_size with tau^2, I^2, Q, prediction interval in extra.
