Abstract
Meta-analyses have become indispensable in the behavioral sciences, combining and summarizing data from multiple studies. While they offer many advantages (e.g., increased power, higher generality, and resolving conflicting findings), they currently only provide a snapshot at a given point. In active research areas, frequent meta-analytic updates are necessary to incorporate new evidence. We propose guidelines for live, dynamic meta-analyses and introduce an accessible tool using the R environment. Our app, powered by the Shiny package, enables the meta-analyst to integrate evidence interactively as an update of an existing meta-analysis or from scratch (i.e., a new meta-analysis). By embracing dynamic meta-analyses and leveraging modern tools, researchers can ensure up-to-date meta-analyses in their respective fields.
