meta-analysis  

Définition

  • Meta-analysis is a statistical method that integrates the results of several independent studies considered to be “combinable.” It has become one of the major tools to integrate research findings in social and medical sciences in general and in education and psychology in particular. Although the history of meta-analytic procedures goes all the way back to the early 1900s and the work of Karl Pearson and others, who devised statistical tools to compare studies from different samples, Gene V. Glass coined the term in 1976. [Source: Encyclopedia of Research Design; Meta-Analysis]
