Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Reviewers need to decide whether it is appropriate to use statistical integration. One basic criterion is that the research question being addressed should be nearly identical across studies. This means that the independent and dependent variables, and the study populations, are sufficiently similar to merit integration. A second criterion concerns whether there is a sufficient base of knowledge for statistical integration. If there are only a few studies, or if all of the studies are weakly designed and harbor extensive bias, it usually would not make sense to compute an average effect. One final issue concerns the consistency of the evidence. When the same hypothesis has been tested in multiple studies and the results are highly conflicting, meta-analysis is likely not appropriate.
