prop_to_es: Proportion to Effect Size
Description
Converts proportions (typically seen in studies reporting odds ratio statistics) 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
prop_to_es(p1, p2, n.ab, n.cd)
