A general overview of frailty concepts and a comprehensive meta-analysis of their relation with negative health outcomes still lacks in literature, making it difficult for health care professionals and researchers to recognize frailty and the related health risks on the ...
Pennies make pounds: Multilevel meta-analysis of single-case experimental data KU Leuven
Single-case experimental designs (SCEDs) have been frequently used in different disciplines to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions or treatments (Schlosser, Lee, & Wendt, 2008; Shadish, 2014a, 2014b; Shadish & Rindskopf, 2007; Smith, 2012). In this kind of design one or a few cases are repeatedly measured under different conditions (Barlow, Nock, & Hersen, 2009; Kratochwill et al., 2010; Onghena, 2005). Although SCEDs are ...
Inhibition, Shifting and Updating: Inter and intra-domain commonalities and differences from an executive functions activation likelihood estimation meta-analysis KU Leuven
Executive functions are higher-order mental processes that support goal-directed behavior. Among these processes, Inhibition, Updating, and Shifting have been considered core executive domains. In this meta-analysis, we comprehensively investigate the neural networks of these executive domains and we synthesize for the first time the neural convergences and divergences among the most frequently used executive paradigms within those domains. A ...
A Meta-Analysis of Longitudinal Peer Influence Effects in Childhood and Adolescence KU Leuven Ghent University
For decades, psychological research has examined the extent to which children's and adolescents' behavior is influenced by the behavior of their peers (i.e., peer influence effects). This review provides a comprehensive synthesis and meta-analysis of this vast field of psychological science, with a goal to quantify the magnitude of peer influence effects across a broad array of behaviors (externalizing, internalizing, academic).

Balance control in individuals with developmental coordination disorder: A systematic review and meta-analysis KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: Although it is recognized that the majority of children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) have balance deficits, comprehensive insights into which balance domains are affected, are still lacking in literature. RESEARCH QUESTION: To what extent is balance control deficient in individuals with DCD compared to controls? METHODS: Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science were systematically searched. Risk of bias was assessed with ...
