      ab: This report presents the results of several meta-analyses in which samples in the articles published in foumal of Applied Psychology, Joumal of Occupational and Organisational Psychology and Personnel Psychology from 1983 to 1994 were integrated. The findings show that in the last decade a small increase in sample size has been observed in relation to sample size of studies published two or three decades ago. However, the mean sample continues to be of a small size. This last finding suggests that sampling error continues to be the most important artifactual error for explaining the variability of vahdity coefficients. Some implications for the confidence intervals and power analysis are discussed.
