es_from_etasq_adj {metaConvert}R Documentation

Convert an adjusted eta-squared value (i.e., from an ANCOVA) to various effect size measures

Description

Convert an adjusted eta-squared value (i.e., from an ANCOVA) to various effect size measures

Usage

es_from_etasq_adj(
  etasq_adj,
  n_exp,
  n_nexp,
  n_cov_ancova,
  cov_outcome_r,
  smd_to_cor = "viechtbauer",
  reverse_etasq
)

Arguments

etasq_adj

an adjusted eta-squared value (i.e., obtained from an ANCOVA model)

n_exp

number of participants in the experimental/exposed group.

n_nexp

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

n_cov_ancova

number of covariates in the ANCOVA model.

cov_outcome_r

correlation between the outcome and covariate (multiple correlation when multiple covariates are included in the ANCOVA model).

smd_to_cor

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

reverse_etasq

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

Details

This function first computes an adjusted Cohen's d (D) and Hedges' g (G) from the adjusted eta squared of a binary predictor (ANCOVA model). Odds ratio (OR) and correlation coefficients (R/Z) are then converted from the Cohen's d.

To estimate a Cohen's d the following formula is used (Cohen, 1988):

d\_adj = 2 * \sqrt{\frac{etasq\_adj}{1 - etasq\_adj}}

To estimate other effect size measures, calculations of the es_from_cohen_d_adj() are applied.

Value

This function estimates and converts between several effect size measures.

natural effect size measure D + G
converted effect size measure OR + R + Z
required input data See 'Section 18. Adjusted: ANCOVA statistics, eta-squared'
