You don't want to miss the next @srma-sig.bsky.social webinar on "A meta-review on the methodological quality of education intervention meta-analyses" featuring work by #MartaPellegrini, @terripigott.bsky.social and colleagues! @aeraedresearch.bsky.social #MetaAnalysis #SystematicReview

Interested in the state of research on educational inequalities in Europe? Our newly published scoping review maps out the trends, gaps, and methodological characteristics of longitudinal studies in this field. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I'm excited to share that our new article, led by Prof. Ronny Scherer, has just been published. In the paper, we present an approach for synthesizing dependent correlation matrices, outline four working models within this framework and demonstrate their application. lnkd.in/eWKHfhWG #metaanalysis

On Wednesday, June 4, from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. CET, the DiDi Hub is pleased to host a talk by Professor Francesca Borgonovi titled: "Skills, Occupations, and Opportunity: New Evidence from the 2023 OECD Adult Skills Survey." Join us! www.uv.uio.no/cemo/english... @ronnyscherer.bsky.social

I will teach my advanced #MetaAnalysis course this year (September 24-26, 2025): www.wvbauer.com/doku.php/cou... Since my regular meta-analysis course is also overdue, I decided to extend the advanced course by an extra day to cover the standard methods more thoroughly.

For all stats people out there: or neighbours at Psychology are looking for a full prof in Methods and Statistics: www.academictransfer.com/nl/jobs/3519... #metascience #stats

Last Friday, @ronnyscherer.bsky.social and I conducted a meta-analysis workshop for researchers at the University of Dortmund. Thank you, @tu-dortmund.bsky.social , for having us!

Yesterday, I had the honor of receiving the GEBF Junior Publication Prize 2025 from the Society for Empirical Educational Research (GEBF) for my research on the empirical performance of ML algorithms for abstract screening!🏆 Please see the awarded publication here: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Great session at the #ESERASIG6 Methods Journal Club today! 🎓✨ Together with Nani Teig, Wangqiong Ye, and Van De Vo Van De, we explored: - #SystematicReviews - Reporting standards for transparency & reproducibility - AI tools Thanks to all the participants for the great discussion!

Another open position with LEVANTE - this time a postdoc on our psychometrics team, with Nilam Ram: postdocs.stanford.edu/prospective/... Come join us in creating a field-leading framework for developmental data collection! levante-framework.org

Okay made a starter pack for folks into evidence synthesis, systematic review, meta-analysis. I've surely missed people, so please ping with suggestions or self-nominations. go.bsky.app/JLw77VZ

Register here for our next webinar with Mikkel Vembye: www.srmasig.org/seminar/

I truly enjoyed speaking on research synthesis, reproducibility, and open science at Dept of Special Education semina at UiO. Great discussions on challenges in #ResearchSynthesis & ways to improve #SystematicReviews & #Meta-Analyses to inform policy, practice & future research.

New paper out! 🚀 The paper led by the amazing @Lars König on AI-aided screening tools for systematic reviews and meta-analyses has just been published in Research Synthesis Methods. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Kids: study statistics

Our next talk in the Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis SIG Online seminar series will be from Dr. Mike Cheung from the National University of Singapore, sharing wisdom on how to fit meta-analytic models in an SEM framework. It's coming up in just under two weeks, on Friday October 18th.

One un-questioned research practice (UQRP) that does as much harm as QRPs is ignoring sampling bias and selection effects. This is a nice paper that shows one way to be transparent and analytical about the problem. "Graphical Causal Models for Survey Inference" doi.org/10.1177/0049... #stats 🧪

First talk is coming up next week! It will be a panel discussion on getting meta-analyses done.

A common problem when performing evidence synthesis is that popular risk of bias tools don’t precisely suit the kind of studies you’re synthesizing. The LATITUDES network is a searchable library of risk of bias tools categorized by study design www.jclinepi.com/article/S089...

Neat project—open discussion forum for arXiv papers #SciComment www.alphaxiv.org

New paper by LIP colleagues @buchberger.bsky.social, @zoengo.bsky.social, Aaron Peikert, @brandmaier.bsky.social, & @markuswb.bsky.social out now! #Neuroskyence #PsychSciSky link.springer.com/article/10.3...

Great analyses with amazing explanations. Meta-analyses are a very important set of statistical tools but we need to learn how to use them.

Some quantitative psychology (longitudinal emphasis) positions available with me at Uni Zurich from September on, rebleets appreciated! Postdoc: jobs.uzh.ch/offene-stell... PhD: jobs.uzh.ch/offene-stell...

Thrilled to co-lead a #MetaAnalysis workshop with Prof. Scherer at #QRM2024 (Gothenburg)! 🇸🇪 In the workshop, we explored data integration (IPD & non-IPD), data synthesis (random & mixed effects models), & publication bias. Thanks to the organizers for having us! #ResearchSynthesis

I have officially defended my PhD thesis! Yey! In this thesis, I explored how machine learning and two-stage individual participant data meta-analysis can help researchers navigate information overload during the literature search and synthesis phases of systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

Coming up next week in the AERA Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis SIG online seminar series, we're looking forward to welcoming Zhipeng Hou from Northwestern University. Zhipeng will be presenting Enhancing Reliability in Automated Record Screening: A Resampling Algorithm

The Centre for Research on Equality in Education at the University of Oslo is looking for PhDs and Postdocs! www.uv.uio.no/create/engli... Join a unique and interdisciplinary team aiming to understand educational inequalities and the methods and interventions we can use to close them!

(1/3) Recently, I came across discussions on theory building and generalizability. Meta-analysis has a vital role to play in the latter. Meta-analyses have tremendous power in helping us understand how differences across studies are related to study-design features.
