Code
Home Math Environment and Children's Math Achievement Meta-Analysis R code using the Metafor package
Part of Project: The Home Math Environment and Children's Math Achievment: A Meta-Analysis
Description: This code was written in R version 3.5.3 using the metafor package (Viechtbauer, 2010). First the dataset is called in, then the variables are converted to the correct formats for analysis, then the escalc() function is used to calculate an overall Fisher's Z effect size, which is then converted to an R correlation coefficient.
Code Type: Analysis
