SDM calculations

Index

	Mean analyses	This procedure calculates meta-analytic means, with their statistical significance based on Monte Carlo randomizations. You can specify a filter, useful for subgroup analyses.

	Descriptive analysis of quantiles	This procedure calculates meta-analytic quantiles. You can specify a filter, useful for subgroup analysis.

	Jackknife sensitivity analysis	This procedure performs a jackknife analysis, which consists in repeating the mean analysis as many times as studies have been included, discarding one different study each time. This is useful for exploring the replicability of the findings.

	Linear models	Linear models might be useful to several aims such as comparing two or more groups, controlling for potential confoundings, or assessing the heterogeneity of the findings by means of meta-regressions.

	Linear models: comparing groups	This procedure calculates the differences between two or three groups, with their statistical significance based on Monte Carlo randomizations. You can specify covariates to remove potential confounds, and a filter for subgroup analyses.

	Linear models: meta-regression	This procedure calculates linear meta-regressions, with their statistical significance based on Monte Carlo randomizations. You can specify a filter, useful for subgroup analyses.
