I am conducting a meta-analysis between 2 variables. Both variables are different types of taste. For eg stimulus 1 is sweet and stimulus 2 is bitter and I note the correlation between these two taste modalities. In some scientific papers the correlation between these stimulus 1 and stimulus 2 as given as pearson r and in some studies it's given as spearman correlation coeff. So can I use these 2 different types of effect size in the same meta-analysis? Is there a way to transform these 2 different types of effect sizes into a common effect size? Or do I have to conduct the meta-analysis separately for individual effect size?

Thank you for your attention
