Aims:
The aim of this task was to examine the psychological effects of wintering-over in Antarctica. The feasibility of a meta-analysis for combining the results of relevant empirical studies in this area was considered. The great disparity between experimental design, statistical methodology and reporting details led to the conclusion that a traditional meta-analysis was not feasible. Possible forward work considerations include a systematic literature review, a re-analysis of the data (for certain individual measures) using modern longitudinal techniques, and/or an alternative meta-analysis method (for certain individual measures) and/or a qualitative literature review.
