psychmeta version 2.6.2

Changes in Version 2.6.2 (2022-01-17)

• Made a superficial update to the overview vignette to satisfy CRAN's requirements.

psychmeta version 2.6.1

Changes in Version 2.6.1 (2022-01-01)

• Bug fix in limits_tau2() when method == "normal_logQ".

• Update generate_bib() and metabulate() to permit direct rendering of bibliographies in RMarkdown documents (rmarkdown #1364)

• Changed the psychmeta NEWS file to NEWS.md for easier viewing.

• In plot_forest(), by default, use the same conf_method and conf_level values as used when the meta-analysis model was fit.

• Fix bug in wt_cor() where it always returned 1 when correlating only 2 variables.

• Added a local copy of "apa.csl" to the vignette resources to avoid build issues if zotero.org's style templates are unavailable due to AWS downtime.

psychmeta version 2.6.0

Changes in Version 2.6.0 (2021-05-31)

• Improved handling of effect sizes with observed magnitudes of exactly zero in individual-correction meta-analyses. To accurately account for the estimation of error variances after correcting for artifacts, effect sizes of exactly zero are substituted with functionally equivalent but computationally non-zero values via the "zero_substitute " argument of the control_psychmeta() function. The default "zero_substitute" value is .Machine$double.eps -- this permits the effect size to be treated as functionally zero while still allowing an attenuation factor to be computed, which is used to estimate a more accurate corrected error variance value.

• Reduced number of dependencies.

• Updated documentation.

psychmeta version 2.5.1

Changes in Version 2.5.1 (2021-05-07)

• Bug fix in consolidating dependent correlations when the dataset contains same-construct intercorrelations.

psychmeta version 2.5.0

Changes in Version 2.5.0 (2021-05-01)

• Added var_error_spearman(), var_error_mult_R(), and var_error_mult_Rsq() functions.

• Made internal code updates to improve performance.

psychmeta version 2.3.10

Changes in Version 2.3.10 (2020-06-07)

• Bug fix when compositing facets into overall construct variables.
• Bug fix in ma_r_ic.
• Moved packages MASS, tmvtnorm, and nor1mix to "Suggests" to avoid errors some users have encountered when loading psychmeta in R 4.0.0.

psychmeta version 2.3.9

Changes in Version 2.3.9 (2020-06-04)

• Bug fix when compositing facets into overall construct variables.
• Remove unnecessary S4 class exports.
• Bug fix in get_matrix().
• Fix extraneous warnings in ma_r() when ma_method="ic" since dplyr 1.0.0.
• Print all columns of meta-analysis results tables.

psychmeta version 2.3.8

Changes in Version 2.3.8 (2020-04-21)

• Bug fix to correct an issue that arose in version 2.3.7 in which factor-type variables passed to ma_r() and ma_d() as construct/facet/measure arguments were coerced to numeric variables.

psychmeta version 2.3.7

Changes in Version 2.3.7 (2020-04-09)

• Updates to ensure consistency with upcoming R version 4.0.0.

• Bug fixes in ma_r() moderated meta-analyses that involve dependency consolidation.

psychmeta version 2.3.6

Changes in Version 2.3.6 (2020-02-19)

• Bug fix in dependent sample consolidation.

• A vector of moderator variable names can now be specified quoted or unquoted, like other arguments.
