es_from_cohen_d_adj {metaConvert}R Documentation

Convert an adjusted Cohen's d value to several effect size measures

Description

Convert an adjusted Cohen's d value to several effect size measures

Usage

es_from_cohen_d_adj(
  cohen_d_adj,
  n_cov_ancova,
  cov_outcome_r,
  n_exp,
  n_nexp,
  smd_to_cor = "viechtbauer",
  reverse_d
)

Arguments

cohen_d_adj

Adjusted Cohen's d (i.e., standardized mean difference) value.

n_cov_ancova

number of covariates

cov_outcome_r

covariate-outcome correlation (in case of multiple covariates, the multiple correlation)

n_exp

number of participants in the experimental/exposed group.

n_nexp

number of participants in the non-experimental/non-exposed group.

smd_to_cor

formula used to convert the cohen_d value into a coefficient correlation (see details).

reverse_d

a logical value indicating whether the direction of generated effect sizes should be flipped.

Details

This function estimates the standard error of an adjusted Cohen's d value and Hedges' g (G), and converts an odds ratio (OR) and correlation coefficients (R/Z).

To estimate the standard error of Cohen's d, the following formula is used (table 12.3 in Cooper):

d\_se = \sqrt{\frac{n\_exp+n\_nexp}{n\_exp*n\_nexp} * (1 - cov\_outcome\_r^2) + \frac{cohen\_d\_adj^2}{2*(n\_exp+n\_nexp)}}

To estimate other effect size measures, calculations of the es_from_cohen_d() function are used (with the exception of the degree of freedom that is estimated as df = n_exp + n_nexp - 2 - n_cov_ancova).

Value

This function estimates and converts between several effect size measures.

natural effect size measure D + G
converted effect size measure OR + R + Z
