Publication selection bias in minimum-wage research? A meta-regression analysis (2009)

Doucouliagos, Chris, Stanley, T. D.

Card and Krueger's meta-analysis of the employment effects of minimum wages challenged existing theory. Unfortunately, their meta-analysis confused publication selection with the absence of a genuine...

Meta-Regression Analysis: A Quantitative Method of Literature Surveys

T. D. Stanley, Stephen B. Jarrell

Pedagogically, literature reviews are instrumental. They summarize the large literature written on a particular topic, give coherence to the complex, often disparate, views expressed about an issue,...

Beyond Publication Bias

T. D. Stanley

This review considers several meta-regression and graphical methods that can differentiate genuine empirical effect from publication bias. Publication selection exists when editors, reviewers, or...

Does unemployment hysteresis falsify the natural rate hypothesis? a meta-regression analysis

T. D. Stanley

A quantitative survey of 24 studies containing 99 national estimates of unemployment persistence reinstates unemployment hysteresis as a viable falsifying hypothesis to the natural rate hypothesis....

Meta-Regression Methods for Detecting and Estimating Empirical Effects in the Presence of Publication Selection

T. D. Stanley

This study investigates the small-sample performance of meta-regression methods for detecting and estimating genuine empirical effects in research literatures tainted by publication selection....

A meta-analysis of the union-nonunion wage gap.

Stephen B. Jarrell, T. D. Stanley

The authors use meta-regression analysis, a new method for synthesizing empirical results reported in the economic literature, to corroborate and extend H. Gregg Lewis's landmark 1986 research on the...

Integrating the Empirical Tests of the Natural Rate Hypothesis: A Meta-Regression Analysis

T. D. Stanley

A meta-analysis of thirty-four restriction tests from nine studies of the natural rate of unemployment hypothesis (NRU) finds the statistical trace of a false empirical hypothesis. A theme of bias...

Wheat from Chaff: Meta-analysis as Quantitative Literature Review

T. D. Stanley

This paper presents and develops a quantitative method of literature reviewing and evaluating empirical research, meta-regression analysis or MRA. Economics is theory-driven. Yet, we must learn...

When All Are NAIRU: Hysteresis and Behavioural Inertia.

Stanley, T D

Smyh and Easaw (2001) use a fully flexible ratchet model to estimate the US NAIRU. However, such flexible notions of NAIRU cleanse the natural rate hypothesis of all policy and theoretical relevance....

Theory Competition and Selectivity: Are All Economic Facts Greatly Exaggerated?

Hristos Doucouliagos, T.D. Stanley

There is growing concern and mounting evidence of selectivity in empirical economics. Most empirical economic literatures have a skewed (or truncated) distribution of results. The aim of this paper...

Identifying and Correcting Publication Selection Bias in the Efficiency-Wage Literature: Heckman Meta-Regression

T.D Stanley, Hristos Doucouliagos

Publication selection bias represents one of the most serious challenges to the integrity of empirical economics. We develop Heckman regression methods to solve this potentially persistent problem...

Two-Stage Precision-Effect Estimation and Heckman Meta-Regression for Publication Selection Bias

T.D. Stanley

This study offers a simple meta-regression method for estimating genuine empirical effects in research literatures tainted by publication selection. Two-stage precision-effect (PETS) corrects for the...

Meta-Regression Analysis as the Socio-Economics of Economic Research

T.D. Stanley, Chris Doucouliagous, Stephen B. Jarrell

Meta-regression analysis (MRA) provides an empirical framework through which to integrate disparate economic research results, filter out likely publication bias, and explain their wide variation...

This paper extends, tests, and revises a previous meta-regression analysis of the gender wage gap (Stanley and Jarrell 1998). We find that there remains a strong, though dampened, tendency for...

Could It Be Better to Discard 90% of the Data? A Statistical Paradox

T.D. Stanley, Stephen B. Jarrell, Hristos Doucouliagos

Conventional practice is to draw inferences from all available data and research results, even though there is ample evidence to suggest that empirical literatures suffer from publication selection...
