bayesmeta (version 2.6)

Bayesian Random-Effects Meta-Analysis

Description

A collection of functions allowing to derive the posterior distribution of the two parameters in a random-effects meta-analysis, and providing functionality to evaluate joint and marginal posterior probability distributions, predictive distributions, shrinkage effects, posterior predictive p-values, etc.; For more details, see also Roever C (2020) .
