چکیده
Four methods for reviewing a body of research literature – narrative review, descriptive review, vote-counting, and meta-analysis – are compared. Meta-analysis as a formalized, systematic review method is discussed in detail in terms of its history, current status, advantages, common analytic methods, and recent developments. Meta-analysis is found to be underutilized in IS. Suggestions on encouraging the use of metaanalysis in IS research and procedures recommended for meta-analysis are also provided.
