For a project I am working on, we are using Stan to fit generalized random effects location-scale models to a bunch of count data.

In this post, we will sketch out what we think is a promising and pragmatic method for examining selective reporting while also accounting for effect size dependency. The method is to use a cluster-level bootstrap, which involves re-sampling clusters of observations to approximate the sampling distribution of an estimator. To illustrate this technique, we will demonstrate how to bootstrap a Vevea-Hedges selection model.
UPDATED November 21, 2020. Thanks to Allen O’Brien for pointing out a bug in the codefolding code, which led to the last code chunk defaulting to hidden rather than open.
2020-05-03 This post describes an implementation of code folding for an older version of the Academic Theme. It does not work with Academic 4.+. See my updated instructions to get it working with newer versions of Academic.
At AERA this past weekend, one of the recurring themes was how software availability (and its usability and default features) influences how people conduct meta-analyses. That got me thinking about the R packages that I’ve developed, how to understand the extent to which people are using them, how they’re being used, and so on.
Last night I attended a joint meetup between the Austin R User Group and R Ladies Austin, which was great fun. The evening featured several lightning talks on a range of topics, from breaking into data science to network visualization to starting your own blog.
