Why is meta-analysis an important technique for verifying scientific outcomes?
On Jul 08, 2024
Meta-analysis is a statistical means of combining the results of many individual studies to reach a larger overall conclusion. Although any one study might find a particular pattern of results, establishing that pattern over many studies from many laboratories over time is a better way to reach stronger conclusions about a scientific outcome.

Suppose that the probability of one event is known from the method of equal alternatives, and the probability of a second event is known from intuitive judgment.Can the probability of both events occurring be determined through the operation of conjunction?
A) No, because no operation in probability calculus can be used with events that have probabilities which were established by different methods.
B) No, because conjunction cannot be used with events that have probabilities which were established by different methods.
C) No, because probabilities established by the method of equal alternatives are far more precise than those established by intuitive judgment.
D) Yes, but the resulting probability would be wildly inaccurate.
E) Yes, because the method by which probabilities were established has nothing to do with whether or not they can be conjoined.
