From Learning a Language Through Reading: A Meta-analysis of Studies on the Effects of Extensive Reading on Second and Foreign Language Learning (2025) · cites this paper as Borenstein et al., 2021
The three-level model weighted effect sizes by variance across participants and did not account for variation in measurement error.
“As is typical for meta-analyses43, in our three-level model, we weighted effect sizes as a function of their variance across participants, so we did not account for this other source of variation in measurement.”
From When combinations of humans and AI are useful: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2024) · cites this paper as [43]
The prediction interval for true effect sizes is -0.598 to 2.350, and 95% of all comparable populations have genuine effect sizes in this interval.
“We can estimate the prediction interval of -0.598 to 2.350 if we assume that the true effects are normally distributed in (d units).The true ES in 95% of all comparable populations falls within this interval”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
