a.fes: ANCOVA F-statistic to Effect Size

Description

Converts an ANCOVA $F$ to an effect size of $d$ (mean difference), $g$ (unbiased estimate of $d$), $r$ (correlation coefficient), $z'$ (Fisher's $z$), and log odds ratio. The variances of these estimates are also computed.

Usage

a.fes(f, n.1, n.2, R, q)

Arguments

f
$F$ value from ANCOVA.
n.1
Treatment group sample size.
n.2
Comparison group sample size.
R
Covariate outcome correlation or multiple correlation.
q
number of covariates.

Value

  • dStandardized mean difference ($d$).
  • var.dVariance of $d$.
  • gUnbiased estimate of $d$.
  • var.gVariance of $g$.
  • rCorrelation coefficient.
  • var.rVariance of $r$.
  • log.oddsLog odds ratio.
  • var.log.oddsVariance of log odds ratio.
  • nTotal sample size.
