tes: t-test Value to Effect Size

Description

Converts a t-test value 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

tes(t, n.1, n.2)

Arguments

t
t-test value reported in primary study.
n.1
Sample size of treatment group.
n.2
Sample size of comparison group.

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.
