Bastiaan Van Grootven

Dear Margarida,

Michael Borenstein, who I believed was involved in the development of CMA, has instructions on his youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/MetaAnalysisCMA/videos

He also teaches an excellent course on meta-analysis and the use of CMA on statistics.com: https://www.statistics.com/courses/meta-analysis-1/

Best of luck,

Bastiaan

Thank you so much for your help!

Also consider the MAJOR module for JAMOVI: https://kylehamilton.com/software/major/

David Moreau Thank you for the recomendation. I have tried MAJOR, but I get an error in the analysis and cannot move past it (y is empty or has only NAs)

Not entirely sure but this sounds like either something is wrong with how the data is being loaded or the dataframe has columns with empty values, with which MAJOR can't deal properly. Kyle Hamilton is the person you want to contact for this, if needed.
