In meta regression sometimes the studies have multiple effects that are correlated. For this reason cluster robust standard errors must be computed. However, since the clusters are unbalanced the wild bootstrap is suggested. See Oczkowski E. and Doucouliagos H. (2015). "Wine prices and quality ratings: a meta-regression analysis". American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 97(1): 103--121. doi:10.1093/ajae/aau057 and Cameron A. C., Gelbach J. B. and Miller D. L. (2008). "Bootstrap-based improvements for inference with clustered errors". The Review of Economics and Statistics, 90(3): 414--427. doi:10.1162/rest.90.3.414.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("crwbmetareg", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-crwbmetareg

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-crwbmetareg

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-crwbmetareg
