#' Toy Dataset for Network Meta-Analysis using the netmeta package
#'
#' This is a toy dataset containing simulated effect size data of a fictitious
#' network meta-analysis examining the effect of psychotherapies. Effect size
#' data is provided as the standardized mean difference (SMD) between the intervention
#' and control group and its corresponding standard error for each study at post.
#' The dataframe layout is optimized for out-of-the-box usage using
#' the \code{\link[netmeta]{netmeta}} function.
