摘要: The state of the art in research synthesis has advanced significantly last decade. Much improvement reviews is attributable to application rigorous scientific standards process synthesis. Three principal types syntheses are narrative review, replicated secondary analysis, and meta-analysis or quantitative Each methodology its strengths weaknesses, but all have benefited from increased attention procedural rigor. Modern methods for significant advantages that they provide specific tests existence consistency relationships across studies.
