Can I see a sample video?
To get a sense of the course, click here to watch a sample video. This should give you a sense of how the course works.
Can I ask questions about my own data?
The zoom sessions are intended to clarify the issues covered in the videos and other general issues in meta-analysis. I would be happy to discuss your data as it relates to these issues, and to answer any questions of general interest based on your data. However, we cannot spend much time on issues that are unique to a specific dataset and not of general interest.

Testimonials
"No matter if you’re a clinician, researcher or statistician; the course offers you a broad theoretical as well as practical intro to the discipline of meta-analysis. Everyone seemed to learn something – this shows great competence of Michael Borenstein."
Christina Mohr Jensen - Research Unit for Child & Adolescent Psychiatry
"I would definitely recommend taking this course. It has direct application for anyone who is interested in performing meta-analysis. I was very surprised that we even looked at meta-regression, which expands the ability to analyze data."
