Abstract
An explicit form of confidence intervals for the treatment effect in random effects meta-analysis model obtained from Harville–Jeske–Kenward–Roger approach is given. These restricted likelihood based intervals are compared to alternative procedures commonly used in collaborative studies when the number of participants is small and study-specific variances are heterogeneous. Monte Carlo simulation experiments show that the former intervals have quite conservative coverage probabilities and favor the latter intervals.
