# fixed-effects meta-analysis (3 experiments' effect sizes)
- frequentist model for each campaign/experiment: `t1 ~ condition * t0`, block and day fixed effects
- Bayesian meta priors: t-distribution, `t(degrees_of_freedom, mean = 0, scale = 0.05)`, where `degrees_of_freedom` is 3, 5, 15, or 30

# differences in pre-campaign activity across experiments
Variable: pre-campaign proportion of days with at least 1 tweet/retweet/quote/reply.
Experiment 2 had many users with relatively little activity before the campaign. Distribution looks very different from the other experiments, so should it's excluded from the meta-analysis.
