Abstract

As a vital tool for advancing cumulative science and guiding evidence-based practice, meta-analysis has advanced many research fields of the behavioral and social sciences, including worker age and aging. Nonetheless, there is still room for improvement, particularly in terms of meta-analytic methods and procedures. In this article, we overview some influential meta-analyses on worker age and aging concerning their psychometric correction methods and procedures, identify potential controversies and issues, and offer suggestions for improvement, particularly in corrections for two major methodological artifacts (i.e., range variation and measurement error). We also debunk some myths that both researchers and journal reviewers may encounter regarding how to conduct psychometric meta-analyses and discuss implications and agendas for future research on worker age and aging. We hope this article will help researchers in the field of age and aging and beyond to conduct a psychometric meta-analysis while harnessing the benefits of psychometric corrections and meta-analysis.
元分析中心理测量修正的改进建议及对工人年龄与老龄化研究的启示
作为推进累积科学和指导循证实践的重要工具,元分析推动了行为和社会科学的许多研究领域,包括工人年龄和老龄化。然而,仍有改进的空间,特别是在元分析方法和程序方面。在本文中,我们概述了一些有影响力的关于工人年龄和老龄化的心理测量校正方法和程序的荟萃分析,确定了潜在的争议和问题,并提出了改进建议,特别是在两个主要的方法工件(即范围变化和测量误差)的校正方面。我们还揭穿了研究人员和期刊审稿人可能遇到的一些关于如何进行心理测量元分析的神话,并讨论了未来研究工人年龄和老龄化的影响和议程。我们希望这篇文章能够帮助年龄和老龄化领域的研究人员在利用心理测量修正和元分析的好处的同时进行心理测量元分析。
