内容説明
"FAST*PRO" is a software programme that implements many of the features of the Confidence Profile Method - a set of tools for meta-analysis, including techniques for interpeting and comparing the results of experiments, adjusting experimental evidence for biases, and combining evidence from multiple experiments. Designed for use on IBM-compatible personal computers, "FAST*PRO" allows for synthesis of evidence and generation of probability distributions even in the face of multiple pieces of evidence, different experimental designs, different types of outcomes, different measures of effect, biases to internal validity, biases to comparability and external validity, indirect evidence, mixed comparisons, and gaps in experimental evidence.
