[Online] GGS-Workshop: Meta-analytic Structural Equation Modeling

Due to the ongoing pandemic situation we have had to reschedule the course from October 8 to November 12. Furthermore, after careful deliberation, we have decided to shift the course to an online format using Cisco Webex.

Objectives
The objective of this workshop is to learn the basics of meta-analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM) and to get practical experience with fitting MASEM models using a dedicated online app and using the metaSEM package in R. The workshop will focus on the analysis part of meta-analysis (so it will not cover the search process and coding of the data).

The first half of this one-day workshop will be lecture time. The second half of the day will be a practical in which participants apply MASEM using the metaSEM package in R and a dedicated Shiny app.    
Content of the lecture:
- Brief introduction to meta-analysis and structural equation modeling - Methods for MASEM - Heterogeneity in MASEM - Example of a meta-analytic path model  - Example of a meta-analytic factor model  
Content of the practical:
- Preparing data - Fitting a meta-analytic path model in R - Fitting a meta-analytic path model using the Shiny app

- Optional: Perform a moderator analysis with categorical or continuous moderator

Participants need to have R and the metaSEM package installed on the device that they use for the conference.

The course will be held in English.

Further information is available in the syllabus "Meta-analytic Structural Equation Modeling".
