Praised in the first edition for the clarity of his general framework for conceptualizing meta-analysis, Rosenthal's revised edition covers the latest techniques in the field, such as a new effect size indicator for one size data, a new coefficient of robustness of replication, new procedures for combining and comparing effect sizes for multiple dependent variables, and new data on the magnitude of the problem of incomplete retrieval (the file drawer problem).

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Professor Rosenthal′s research has centered for over 40 years on the role of the self-fulfilling prophecy in everyday life and in laboratory situations. Special interests include the effects of teacher′s expectations on students′ academic and physical performance, the effects of experimenters′ expectations on the results of their research, and the effects of clinicians′ expectations on their patients′ mental and physical health. For some 40 years he has been studying the role of nonverbal communication in (a) the mediation of interpersonal expectancy effects and in (b) the relationship between members of small work groups and small social groups. He also has strong interests in sources of artifact in behavioral research and in various quantitative procedures. In the realm of data analysis, his special interests are in experimental design and analysis, contrast analysis, and meta-analysis. His most recent books and articles are about these areas of data analysis and about the nature of nonverbal communication in teacher - student, doctor - patient, manager - employee, judge - jury, and psychotherapist - client interaction. He is Co-Chair of the Task Force on Statistical Inference of the American Psychological Association.

"Meta-Analytic Procedures for Social Research contains a wealth of information on meta-analytic techniques. The excellent index and bibliography add to its usefulness." --The Library Quarterly "Now in its second edition, Robert Rosenthal¿s primer on meta-analysis is a ¿must-have¿ tool for the research workbench of students and scholars in the social sciences. The revised volume ¿makes readily accessible some newer meta-analytic procedures that have been developed since the 1984 edition¿ (p.1). In addition, the references in the 1991 edition have been updated to reflect the latest findings and thinking in this field. . . . This book will serve as a valuable resource to anyone interested in meta-analysis as a research technique. There are complete and thorough discussions of problem areas that have been regarded as questionable by critics of this technique. . . . Rosenthal¿s discussion and justification of the use of published studies is thorough and insightful from two vantage points. . . . Rosenthal¿s treatment of publication bias is just one example that emphasizes the value of this book to researchers. The second edition represents a wealth of information in one place which is clearly explained in understandable language. . . . Rosenthal¿s revised edition is a valuable source book for experienced meta-analysts as well as researchers new to the technique. As a teaching tool, the book is recommended as required reading in research methods courses at the doctoral level. Scholars in marketing and organizational behavior have made increasing use of meta-analysis since the 1980s, thus, doctoral students need exposure to and education on this topic. Rosenthal¿s second edition is a necessary tool for achieving this goal." --Elizabeth J. Wilson, Louisiana State University "It is well organized, and adequately describes the various procedures with illustrations. In sum, the book is valuable for individuals interested in the application of meta-analytic procedures." --The Accounting Review Praised in the first edition for its clarity in conceptualizing meta-analysis, Robert Rosenthal¿s newly revised edition covers the latest techniques and advances in the field. Included in this revised edition are chapters examining a new effect size indicator, new one-sample data, a new coefficient of robustness of replication, more procedures for combining and comparing effect sizes for multiple dependent variables, and current data on the magnitude of the problem of incomplete retrieval. In addition, results are provided on the social, psychological, economic, and medical importance of small effect sizes. Designed for use by students and professional researchers in the social and behavioral sciences, this book will prepare the reader not only to do meta-analysis but to evaluate meta-analyses more wisely.
