Rigor in Data Synthesis: A Case Study of Reliability in Meta-analysis
The subject of this study was the reliability among persons coding information from primary research sources for use in a metaanalysis. Meta-analysis is a quantitative procedure for synthesizing data in primary research reports (Glass, 1976; 1977). As such, it is one of a number of quantitative procedures proposed as alternatives to the traditional, verbal review of literature. This study rests on the assumption that meta-analysis in particular, …
Risk taking through the adult life span
Research on aging in general and on cautiousness in adulthood in particular has been plagued by several problems including (a) drawing of samples from the extremes of the adult age range; (b) relying on single criterion variables; and (c) paucity of data on the psychometric properties of scales. In the present study, three measures of risk taking were administered to a sample ranging from 18-78 years old. Reliability estimates indicated that the …
A Computer Program for the Johnson-Neyman Technique
The Johnson-Neyman technique is briefly reviewed, and a program for carrying out an analysis using the procedure is described. The program accomodates one independent and one dependent variable, up to 20 groups of observations, and an unlimited number of cases
Analysis of Time Series by Moving Averages
A program for estimation of trends in longitudinal research based on the moving average was presented and applied to a sample set of data. The program allows both standard and weighted procedures for supression of incidental variation. The effects of varying the order and weights of a moving average were discussed, along with the potential usefulness of the moving average technique for highlighting data trends
Computer Assisted Construction of Variable Norms
An algorithm for updating the means and variances of a norm group after each computer-assisted administration of a test is described. The algorithm does not require storage of the whole data set and provides for unlimited, continuous expansion of the test norms
