Because there were no non-overlapping confidence intervals for any variable, we refrained from inserting subscripts indicating non-overlapping categories; ρ, mean population correlation; SDρ, estimated standard deviation of population correlations; CI, confidence interval (not computed for categories with less than five study correlations); V%, percentage variance accounted for by sampling error; K, number of independent study correlations; N, total sample size.

a

Computation of the population mean was not possible due to a weight of zero, the study correlation of the only study found was r = −0.006.
