Calculating statistical power for meta-analysis using metapower
Open accessAbstract
Meta-analysis is an influential evidence synthesis technique that summarizes a body of research.Though impactful, meta-analyses fundamentally depend on the literature being sufficiently large to generate meaningful conclusions.Power analysis plays an important role in determining the number of studies required to conduct a substantive meta-analysis.Despite this, power analysis is rarely conducted or reported in published meta-analyses.A significant barrier to the widespread implementation of power analysis is the lack of available and accessible software for calculating statistical power for meta-analysis.In this paper, I provide an introduction to power analysis and present a practical tutorial for calculating statistical power using the R package metapower.The main functionality includes computing statistical power for summary effect sizes, tests of homogeneity, categorical moderator analysis, and subgroup analysis.This software is free, easy-to-use, and can be integrated into a continuous work flow with other meta-analysis packages in R.

At least seven studies are required to achieve 80% power at an α of .05 for the estimated small-to-medium effect size (Hedge's g = .35) and average sample size (N = 39).
“The analysis suggests that at least seven studies are required to achieve 80% power at an α of .05.”

The Number of Studies section (page unavailable) explains that the number needed for adequate meta-analytic power depends on effect size, study size, error probability, test type, and model assumptions. The Summary effect size section uses 80% as a conventional power target. Neither section reports that seven studies suffice for the stated effect size and sample size; the paper’s worked example uses different inputs. (LLM, conf=0.82)

“Currently, metapower is not capable of computing statistical power for tests of equivalence, which are are used to statistically reject the presence of an effect (Goertzen & Cribbie, 2010; Lakens, 2017; Lakens, Scheel, & Isager, 2018).”

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.
