Effect size |
This is for 32-bit Facets 3.87. Here is Help for 64-bit Facets 4
There are several definitions of "effect size" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_size
A common one is:
Effect size = (treatment B mean effect - treatment A mean effect) / (treatment A sample S.D.).
In Facets this would be:
Effect size = (Task B measure - Task A measure) / (S.D. of person measures)
Also:
Cramer's V converts a chi-squared into on effect size.
For an individual rater:
Here is one similar to Cohen's D:
Effect size = (rater leniency - mean rater leniency)/rater leniency S.D. of sample
One similar to Glass Delta Δ is
Effect size = (rater leniency - mean rater leniency)/rater latency S.E. of this rater
Derivation of Cohen's d with joint (pooled) S.E.s
Cohen's d: quoting Wikipedia: "difference between two means divided by a pooled standard deviation for the data"
So, in a simple case, let's assume the two sample sizes are the same, n, so that the combined sample is 2*n = N
The sample S.D. is used in Cohen's d, e.g., https://scientificallysound.org/2017/06/29/cohens-d-and-effect-size/
Sample S.D. for one sample = √(sample variance / (n-1)).
S.E. of the sample mean = √(sample variance / (n*(n-1))) = S.D. / √(n)
Rearranging, SD = √ (n) * SE
Let's add up the variances for two samples: pooled variance = (n-1)*SD1² + (n-1)*SD2²
pooled S.D. = √ ( (n-1)*SD1² + (n-1)*SD2²) / (n+n-2))
= √ (( SD1² + SD2²) / 2 )
= √ ((n*SE1² + n*SE2²) / 2)
pooled S.D.= √ (SE1² + SE2²) * √(n/2)
but n = N/2 where N is the combined sample
= √ (SE1² + SE2²) * √(N/4)
Facets: t = (M1-M2) / √ (SE1² + SE2²)
Cohen's d = (M1-M2) / pooled S.D.
Cohen's d = Facets t * √ (SE1²+ SE2²) / pooled S.D.
= t * √ (SE1²+ SE2²) / ( √ (SE1² + SE2²) * √(N / 4)
= t * 2 / √(N)
So, for Facets, when there is a joint S.E., its t and its d.f., the approximation becomes:
Cohen's d = 2 * t /√(d.f.)
