What it does

Psychbull Meta Analysis Methods is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when computing effect sizes and fitting the meta-analytic model for a Psychological Bulletin manuscript — effect-size metrics, random-effects vs. fixed-effect choice, dependent effect sizes (RVE / multilevel), and heterogeneity (Q, I², τ², prediction interval). Guides the core synthesis; moderators and bias diagnostics live in psychbull-moderators-and-bias.

Its SKILL.md is about 920 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

When your agent uses it

  • Computing effect sizes and fitting the meta-analytic model for a Psychological Bulletin manuscript — effect-size metrics
  • Random-effects vs

Example prompts

  • “/psychbull-meta-analysis-methods”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Random-effects (or mixed-effects) by default. Psychological literatures vary across
  2. Dependent effect sizes (multiple per study/sample) violate independence. Use **robust variance
  3. Weighting by inverse variance; report the estimator for τ² (e.g., REML).

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Psychbull Meta Analysis Methods loads about 918 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 339 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~99
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~918

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 339 words (~918 tokens).

“This is the quantitative core of a Psychological Bulletin meta-analysis: turning coded study statistics into effect sizes, pooling them under a defensible model, and characterizing heterogeneity honestly. Psychological Bulletin expects MARS-compliant methods. This skill covers estimation; moderators and publication-bias diagnostics…”
