approximation of mean age in Quinn & Kidd (2018) #119

Closed cissard closed 5 years ago

cissard commented 5 years ago

Quinn & Kidd coded the age range of each group instead of the mean ages. To approximate the mean age, Sho and I have decided to take the middle of each age range. Let me know if you disagree with this solution before next week, or I will close the issue.

We also thought about adding a "comments" bullet point to the dataset description section so people see these kinds of particularities immediately

I like the comment option, sounds good Could also contain eg "Is not systematic" or "Additional information on this website" ?

cissard commented 5 years ago

Yes I added "age is not systematic but the middle of the age range provided in the supplementary materials" in the comment section for Quinn et al. MA. I guess it relates to issue #117 about adding a link to PRISMA flowchart, that could go in the comments too.
