Arguments

X

vector of reported coefficients

sigma

vector of reported stanard errors

cutoffs

significance thresholds that define intervals of different publication probabilities, e.g. c(1.645, 1.96, 2.576).

symmetric

if TRUE assume that positive and negative z-statistics are symmetrically distributed.

model

either "normal" or "t". The assumed functional form of the distribution absent publication bias.

eval.max, iter.max, abs.tol

Control parameters for [stats::nlminb].
