This repository contains the associated supplementary materials for the chapter entitled "Chapter 9 - Pragmatic Trials", which will be published as part of the 3rd edition of the book Aging Research - Methodological Issues. This will be a brand new chapter of the re-edition of the book. You can consult the second edition here.
You will find the descriptions of the methods of the systematic literature search on the docs directory, as well as a report with the R version and package dependencies for the project. Figures and tables referenced in the chapter can be found in the results file. The code for reproducibility of such outputs can be found in the R folder.
The project structure distinguishes three kinds of folders:
-
read-only (RO): not edited by either code or researcher
-
human-writable (HW): edited by the researcher only.
-
project-generated (PG): folders generated when running the code; these folders can be deleted or emptied and will be completely reconstituted as the project is run.
