Publication Bias and the Credibility of Finance–Growth Evidence
摘要
In the final stage of meta-analysis, we examine publication selection bias using a funnel plot, by conducting a goodness-of-fit test of proportional distribution and by performing an MRA test procedure consisting of a funnel-asymmetry test (FAT), a precision-effect test (PET), and a precision-effect estimate with standard error (PEESE), which are proposed by Stanley and Doucouliagos (2012) and have been used widely in recent meta-studies.
