Meta-Analysis of the Association Between Child Sexual Abuse and Re-victimization in Female College Students

[Page 720]

Cutting or trimming outliers was performed when effect sizes were heterogeneous, in an attempt to reach homogeneity. The 95% confidence intervals (CI) are based on final (cut or trimmed) distributions.

k = the number of effect sizes (samples);
N = total number of participants in the k samples;
r_u = the unbiased effect size estimate (positive values indicate better adjustment for control participants );
r _c = the bi-serial effect size after adjusting for base rates of child sexual abuse in each sample;
H = within-group homogeneity (chi-square based on dl = k -I 1).
