How powerful are bias tests? Turns out not very much, even with k = 300 studies. A better way to deal with publication bias is to estimate it with confidence intervals and focus on the upper bound (not the lower bound, lb > 0, there is bias, p < .05). arxiv.org/abs/2607.19626
Beyond Publication-Bias Detection: Estimating Bias under Uncertainty in Heterogeneous Literatures
Meta-analysts routinely test for publication bias, but a nonsignificant test is inconclusive because it may be a Type 2 error. In a large factorial simulation, I show that publication-bias tests have ...
