You can assess this using funnel plots. If publication bias were not a factor, then you expect effect size to be uncorrelated from sample size. If they are correlated, then it's likely publication bias is having some effect on the results.
- ced 11y agoClever solution. Is there a more general principle? I thought that most MNAR problems were hopeless, but maybe not.
