I don't meet any of the qualifications and I don't mean to hijack your post but would somebody be willing to tell me how to do this. PM me if that is best.

Thank you

I'm assuming you have a statistician with a strong background in the caveat's of Meta-Analyses? Are you familiar with propensity scoring?

One thought is that eventhough it is only a short time between Nov. 1st and whenever you start, you might be hearing more from people who have started out well than otherwise.

Just as in every study made in the history of the universe, there is a bias in the selection of the subjects.

[Indiana]

Actually, Irie. This is not a Meta-Analysis. Its just an observational study. An example of Meta-Analyses is when you are combining many "controlled" clinical trials. Here you are just combining data from each player where nothing is controlled within player.

You're nitpicking like mad today...

[Indiana]

Well, you call it nitpicking, I call it statistics. What Irie proposes won't prove anything. Its just an observational view of some data. Only hypothesis driving, nothing else.

Yeah, if you could just never post again, that would be great. I've only got 1 more class in this stuff, and it's hurting my head just to think about one more semester of it. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
