-Raudenbush and Bryk (1985) describe the meta-analytic random- and mixed-effects models and describe restricted maximum-likelihood estimation for the amount of (residual) heterogeneity (p. 80-82).((Raudenbush and Bryk (1985) do not explicitly mention that they are using restricted maximum-likelihood estimation, but equation (27) in their article corresponds to the restricted log likelihood. So don't let the title of the paper confuse you. They do not use the empirical Bayes estimator for the amount of (residual) heterogeneity (e.g., as used by [[analyses:berkey1995|Berkey et al., 1995]]). However, they do obtain empirical Bayes estimates of the study-specific true effects and this is what the title is referring to.)) The models and methods are illustrated with  a meta-analytic dataset of studies examining how teachers' expectations about their pupils can influence actual IQ levels (Raudenbush, 1984). The data are provided in Table 1 and can be loaded with:+Raudenbush and Bryk (1985) describe the meta-analytic random- and mixed-effects models and describe restricted maximum likelihood estimation for the amount of (residual) heterogeneity (p. 80-82).((Raudenbush and Bryk (1985) do not explicitly mention that they are using restricted maximum likelihood estimation, but equation (27) in their article corresponds to the restricted log likelihood.
