His amplification of experimenter- and subject-related artifacts and his insights about ethical issues have improved the way that research is conducted. His statistical contributions are classic and wide ranging, including his body of work on meta-analysis and contrast analysis and his formulation of valuable procedures, such as the binomial effect-size display and counternull statistics. An exceptional scientist, teacher, mentor, and author, Rosenthal, with his generous and brilliant touch, has shaped the lives and work of countless others."
