Phil Bowsher is the Director of Healthcare and Life Sciences at RStudio. Our plan was to randomly select ONE z-score per article (N=69) to make it as unbiased as possible, but can we actually make a z-curve with all the z-scores (N=>700) even though they are connected in some way and often shine light on the same association just using different variables.Presented Augto the R Group for Biosurveillance. That means, we have gone through 69 articles but we have collected more than 700 z-scores. But oftentimes each hypothesis uses several variables to examine an association.

Therefore, we are collecting specific PEs and SEs (detecting which to collect based on the hypothesis) in order to calculate the z-score. We cannot in the same way just ‘harvest’ all data, since the reporting is far more messy than papers within the field of psychology.


Thank you so much for your answer! I have another question: We are studying sociology (and we examine publication bias using a z-curve).
