"Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis is easy to learn and use, but offers a surprising range of cutting‐edge analytic procedures. It helped to make my recent experience with meta‐analysis more efficient and enjoyable!"

James F. Paulson, Ph.D. - Associate Professor & Clinical Psychologist Department of Pediatrics, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters, Norfolk, VA


"Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis Version 2 is really an easy‐to‐use software. It offers you a broad range of statistical, analytical and graphic capabilities to ensure valid meta‐analysis. It is accompanied by a selfexplanatory manual and tutorial. For anyone considering a faster and complete performance of metaanalysis, this software would be a clear first choice. In addition, the book and the online course “Introduction to Meta‐analysis” have been ideal resources in my case, for a complete understanding of this approach. Both strongly recommendable…!!!."
