Meta-regression | Which model to choose & Applications | have a tendency to a central mean. If the test shows that the effect sizes have excess heterogeneity, the random effects meta-regression model may be most appropriate. Applications Meta-regression is an objective and statistically rigorous approach to systematic reviews. Recent applications include quantitative reviews of the empirical literature in economics, business, energy and water policy. Meta-regression analyses have been seen in studies of price and income elasticities of various commodities and taxes, productivity spillovers on multinational companies, and calculations on the value of a statistical life (VSL). Other recent meta-regression analyses have focused on qualifying elasticities derived from demand functions. |
