Transformations
Some effect size types are not analyzed in their raw
form; correlation coefficient has a problematic
standard error formula.
Solution: Fishers Zr transformation.

Interpreting Q
Q is distributed as a Chi-Square
df = number of ESs - 1
Running example has 10 ESs, therefore, df = 9
Critical Value for a Chi-Square with df = 9 and p = .05
is:
