Usage

data(Chan17)

Format

A data frame with 34 independent samples from 6 research reports.

Author

a character vector of study

g_misinfo

Hedges' g of misinformation comparing the misinformation experimental and control groups

g_debunk

Hedges' g of debunking comparing the debuking experimental and misinformation experimental groups

v_misinfo

sampling variance of g_misinfo

c_mis_deb

v_debunk

sampling variance of g_debunk

Published

published or unpublished

MeanAge

mean age of participants

PctFemale

Details

The sampling variances and covariances are calculated using Gleser and Olkin's (2009) method for multiple treatment effects (Equations 3.3 and 3.4). Since the sample sizes of the misinformation, debunking, and control groups are not given, it is assumed they are equal.
