Abstract
Copas' method corrects a pooled estimate from an aggregated data meta-analysis for publication bias. Its performance has been studied for one particular mechanism of publication bias. We show through simulations that Copas' method is not robust against other realistic mechanisms. This questions the usefulness of Copas' method, since publication bias mechanisms are typically unknown in practice.
