重测效应指的是由于反复进行认知能力测试而导致的考试成绩的提高。这一元分析试图通过在多达四个测试管理的大量认知能力测试中检查重测效应的大小及其决定因素来更新和扩展先前的元分析。严格的纳入和排除标准适用于研究设计、参与者的年龄和健康状况以及认知能力测试。广泛的文献搜索从122项研究中发现了174个样本，产生了786个测试结果，总样本量为153,185个。一项全面的纵向多水平荟萃分析显示，在第三次测试后，显著的重测效应和没有进一步的分数增加。多次重测的主成分分析表明，认知能力、操作和内容、测验形式的等价性、重测间隔和被试年龄对重测效应的大小有显著影响。讨论了对未来研究和重测实践的影响。
Retest effects are referred to as the increase in test scores due to the repeated administration of cognitive ability tests. This meta-analysis attempts to update and extend previous meta-analyses by examining the size of retest effects and its determinants in a high number of cognitive ability tests for up to four test administrations. Strict inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied regarding study design, participant age and health status, and cognitive ability tests. An extensive literature search detected 174 samples from 122 studies, which resulted in 786 test outcomes and an overall sample size of 153,185. A comprehensive longitudinal multilevel meta-analysis revealed significant retest effects and no further score gains after the third test administration. Moderator analyses for multiple retests indicated that cognitive ability operation and content, equivalence of test forms, retest interval and participant age have a significant influence on the size of the retest effect. Implications for future research and retesting practice are discussed.
