Abstract

This chapter focuses on meta-analysis in the physical and biological sciences. It explores experimental replication in the physical sciences by highlighting the history of measurements of gravitational force. Also, the chapter presents a list of results of 24 studies, each providing a measure of gravitational force, but by different methods and apparatus. For such a set of studies, the results would not be combined because presumably more accuracy is achieved in recent experiments. The chapter discusses three sets of experiments that were conducted to determine gravitational force in which gold, platinum, and glass balls were used. It focuses on several models that might be appropriate in a few contexts in the physical and medical sciences. The chapter presents two multiplicative models and two parallel additive models.
