PICTURE THIS: A SIMPLE GRAPH THAT REVEALS MUCH ADO ABOUT RESEARCH (2010, unknown): “Our meta-analysis includes cross-sectional, panel and quasi-experimental studies (Doucouliagos and Stanley, 2009).”
Education and Economic Growth: A Meta-Regression Analysis (2014, methodology): “We use this estimation method as a benchmark, because it is the simplest one and is used in many meta-regression works (e.g. Doucouliagos and Stanley, 2009, Effendic et al., 2011), although it is less appropriate for meta-regression analysis compared to the methods described previously.”
Does the UK Minimum Wage Reduce Employment? A Meta‐Regression Analysis (2014, unknown): “Recall that Doucouliagos and Stanley (2009) found that publication selection bias has a dominating effect on the reported employment effects of the US minimum wage.”
A Monte Carlo Analysis of Alternative Meta-Analysis Estimators in the Presence of Publication Bias (2015, background): “14) report that “among minimum wage elasticities, I(2) is 90% (Doucouliagos and Stanley, 2009); it is 93% among estimates of the value of statistical life (Doucouliagos, Stanley and Giles, 2012) and 97% among the partial correlations of CEO pay and corporate performance (Doucouliagos, Haman and Stan”
Behavioural Insights and (Un)healthy Dietary Choices: a Review of Current Evidence (2018, background): “While advocates emphasize that it improves the life of the less affluent, opponents highlight its potentially adverse effects on employment and job creation (e,g, de Linde et al. 2013; Doucouliagos and Stanley 2009; Schmitt 2013).”
Estimating vertical spillovers from FDI: Why results vary and what the true effect is (2011, methodology): “It is worth noting that some researchers argue for using all observations in meta-analysis (Doucouliagos & Stanley, 2009).”
Demand for gasoline is more price-inelastic than commonly thought (2011, unknown): “A common way how to cope with this problem is to employ the mixed-effects multilevel model (Doucouliagos & Stanley, 2009), which allows for unobserved between-study heterogeneity.”
Do the effects of R&D tax credits vary across industries? A meta-regression analysis (2015, result): “This procedure is in line with other recent meta-analysis exercises in other fields of economic research (e.g. Doucouliagos and Stanley 2009; Efendic et al. 2012).”
