Abstract | Meta-analysis is a statistical technique that allows an analyst to synthesize effect sizes from multiple primary studies. To estimate meta-analysis models, the open-source statistical environment R is quickly becoming a popular choice. The meta-analytic community has contributed to this growth by developing numerous packages specific to meta-analysis. The purpose of this study is to locate all publicly available meta-analytic R packages. We located 63 packages via a comprehensive online search. To help elucidate these functionalities to the field, we describe each of the packages, recommend applications for researchers interested in using R for meta-analyses, provide a brief tutorial of two meta-analysis packages, and make suggestions for future meta-analytic R package creators.
