Answers to the ES Questions

 

d = M1 - M2 / Ö[(s1²+ s2²) / 2]
   = D = 7.50 - 2.725 / Ö[(2.038²+ 2.592²) / 2]
   = 2.05

 

Cohen's d

Compute Cohen's d using the two standard deviations.

 How large is the d using Cohen's interpretation
of effect sizes?

d = 2t(df)
   = 2(9.16)Ö73.89
   = 2.13
Cohen's d

Compute Cohen's d using the value of the t-test statistic.

Are the two values of d similar?

g = 2t / ÖN
   = 2(9.16) / Ö80
   = 2.05
Hedges's g

Compute Hedges's g using the t-test statistic.

D = M1 - M2 / scontrol 
  = 7.50 - 2.725 / 2.038
  = 2.34
Glass's delta

Calculate Glass's delta using the standard deviation of the control group.

rYl = Ö[t² / (t² + df)]
     
= Ö[9.16² / (9.16² + 73.89)]
     = .73
Effect size correlation

The effect size correlation was computed by SPSS as the correlation between the iv (TREATGRP) and the dv (SUDS4), rYl = .

Calculate the effect size correlation using the t value.

rYl = d / Ö(d² + 4)
     =
2.05 / Ö(2.05² + 4)
     = .72
Effect size correlation

Use Cohen's d to calculate the effect size correlation.
