Description

Abstract: In recent decades, meta-analysis has become an essential type of research in the field of educational sciences. This type of study synthesises published quantitative research on a specific topic. For this reason, this article offers a methodological protocol in which, from a didactic approach, we offer a series of recommendations and guidelines that could be useful to guide future researchers who are interested in this method of study. Through the explanation of the different phases involved in this process, we support ourselves on expert authors of this methodology and provide designs and support schemes that facilitate the performance of a meta-analysis of scientific rigour and quality. Finally, we also indicate a series of limitations and strengths inherent to the nature of this type of study.

Keywords: meta-analysis, methodological protocol, education, scientific literature.
