BackgroundAn increasing number of studies have investigated delay discounting (DD) in relation to obesity, but with mixed findings. This meta-analysis synthesized the literature on the relationship between monetary and food DD and obesity, with three objectives: (1) to characterize the relationship between DD and obesity in both case–control comparisons and continuous designs; (2) to examine potential moderators, including case–control v. continuous design, money v. food rewards, sample sex distribution, and sample age (<18 v. >18 years); and (3) to evaluate publication bias.MethodFrom 134 candidate articles, 39 independent investigations yielded 29 case–control and 30 continuous comparisons (total n = 10 278). Random-effects meta-analysis was conducted using Cohen's d as the effect size. Publication bias was evaluated using fail-safe N, Begg–Mazumdar and Egger tests, meta-regression of publication year and effect size, and imputation of missing studies.ResultsThe primary analysis revealed a medium effect size across studies that was highly statistically significant (d = 0.43, p < 10−14). None of the moderators examined yielded statistically significant differences, although notably larger effect sizes were found for studies with case–control designs, food rewards and child/adolescent samples. Limited evidence of publication bias was present, although the Begg–Mazumdar test and meta-regression suggested a slightly diminishing effect size over time.ConclusionsSteep DD of food and money appears to be a robust feature of obesity that is relatively consistent across the DD assessment methodologies and study designs examined. These findings are discussed in the context of research on DD in drug addiction, the neural bases of DD in obesity, and potential clinical applications.

This chapter discusses the increased occurrence of publication bias in the scientific literature. Publication bias is associated with the inaccurate representation of the merit of a hypothesis or idea. A strict definition is that it occurs when the published literature reports results that systematically differ from those of all studies and statistical tests conducted; the result is that false conclusions are drawn. The chapter presents five main approaches used to either detect potential narrow sense publication bias or assess how sensitive the results of a meta-analysis are to the possible exclusion. These include funnel plots, tests for relationships between effect size and sample size using nonparametric correlation or regression, trim and fill method, fail-safe numbers, and model selection.

The aim of this study is to the effects of gender on problem solving skills of nursing student using meta-analysis method in Turkey. Online databases were scanned to reach studies to be included in the survey. In scanning 'problem solving', 'student nurse', 'Turkey', 'problem solving skill' keywords were used in Turkish and English. Six studies that meet the criteria were included in the study. The CMA statistical program was used in the analysis of the data. Q and I2 values to test heterogeneity and, Orwin's Fail-Safe N and Tau coefficients to publication bias of the included studies were calculated. A random effects model was used to examine the effect size. The six studies' total sample size was 2079 nursing students, 436 male and 1643 female. Heterogeneity and publication bias test showed that studies were heterogeneous and there was not publication bias. The mean effect size on gender problem solving was calculated as 0.079. In conclusion, it was identified that the effect of gender on problem solving level of student nurses was insignificant for women. For future studies, it will be useful to conduct meta-analysis studies on the different factors that affect the problem solving level of student nurses.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu çalışmanın amacı, meta analiz yöntemi kullanarak Türkiye’deki hemşirelik öğrencilerinin problem çözme beceri düzeylerine cinsiyetin etkisini belirlemektir. Online very tabanları kullanılarak araştırmaya dahil edilecek çalışmalara ulaşıldı. Taramada ‘problem çözme-problem solving’, ‘öğrenci hemşire- student nurse’’, ‘Türkiye-Turkey’, ‘problem çözme becerisi- problem-solving skill’ anahtar kelimeleri kullanıldı. Dahil edilme kriterlerine uygun olan altı çalışma araştırmaya dahil edildi. CMA istatistik programını kullanarak veri analizi sağlandı. Meta analize dahil edilen çalışmaların heterojenliğini ve yayın yanlılığını test etmek için Q ve I2 değerleri, Orwin’s Fail-Safe N ve Tau katsayısı hesaplandı. Etki büyüklüğünün incelenmesinde rastgele etkiler modeli kullanıldı. Araştırmaya dahil edilen altı çalışmanın toplam örneklem büyüklüğü 2079 hemşirelik öğrencisi olup, 436’sı erkek ve 1643’ü kadındı. Heterojenlik ve yayın yanlılığı testi çalışmaların heterojen olduğunu ve yayın yanlılığının olmadığını gösterdi. Cinsiyetin problem çözme üzerine ortalama etki büyüklüğü 0.079 olarak hesaplandı. Sonuç olarak öğrenci hemşirelerin problem çözme düzeyine cinsiyetin etkisinin kadınlar lehine önemsiz düzeyde olduğu belirlendi. Gelecek çalışmalar için öğrenci hemşirelerin problem çözme düzeyini etkileyen farklı faktörlere ilişkin meta analiz çalışmalarının yapılması yararlı olacaktır.
