Meta-Analysis online course

[Aleksej Stevanovic]

I am finding it hard to find resources on Meta-Analysis. I would like to take an online course to walk me through the whole process with STATA, but I cant seem to find that STATA is offering an online course on Meta-Analysis.
Does anyone know of any online courses to be able to learn how to perform Meta-Analysis?

Cheers

Online courses are most commonly offered through various universities that have a strength in doing these sorts of analyses. I do not know of any that are currently on offer right now. Your most expedient step would to be either read the Stata documentation which is very good. To do this, start with -help meta intro- and go to the PDF documentation. Another option is to find an academic text book that focuses on meta-analysis. The most common code examples are provided in Stata and R, while others show no code and just the math. Please note thata Stata's -meta- suite is relatively new (since version 17) and I'm not yet aware of any books giving examples with these commands, so you will likely need to adapt whatever you read about into more modern code regardless.
