Traditional meta-analytic methods rely on the assumption of homogeneity, which assumes the same effect size across all studies. However, this assumption is often unrealistic. To address this issue, we are developing a novel approach called smoothed variance regression (SVR). SVR allows for the effect size to vary across studies and can better accommodate heterogeneity in meta-analysis. In this midterm report, we summarize the progress of our research on SVR and present results from simulation studies that demonstrate its advantages over traditional meta-analytic methods. We also discuss our ongoing work on further developing SVR and validating its performance in real-world applications. The proposed SVR approach has the potential to improve the accuracy and reliability of meta-analysis results in various fields of research.
