Abstract

The meta-analytic approach is one of the most informative methods to structure and combine findings of different studies. Hence, even in forensic sciences meta-analyses were used to arrange knowledge. At most this technique was applied to summarize results of experimental and epidemiological studies on alcohol, illegal drugs, medicines, diseases and driving or skills related to driving. The article demonstrates the method used and the results obtained.
