Evaluating Effect Size in Psychological Research: Sense and Nonsense

David C. Funder, Daniel J. Ozer · 8 May 2019

Effect sizes are underappreciated and often misinterpreted—the most common mistakes being to describe them in ways that are uninformative (e.g., using arbitrary standards) or misleading (e.g., squaring effect-size rs). We propose that effect sizes can be usefully evaluated by comparing them with well-understood benchmarks or by considering them in terms of concrete consequences. In that…

Equivalence Testing for Psychological Research: A Tutorial

Daniël Lakens, Anne M. Scheel, Peder Mortvedt Isager · 1 Jun 2018

Psychologists must be able to test both for the presence of an effect and for the absence of an effect. In addition to testing against zero, researchers can use the two one-sided tests (TOST) procedure to test for equivalence and reject the presence of a smallest effect size of interest (SESOI). The TOST procedure can…

This article discusses causal inference based on observational data, introducing readers to graphical causal models that can provide a powerful tool for thinking more clearly about the interrelations between variables. Topics covered include…

Many Labs 2: Investigating Variation in Replicability Across Samples and Settings

Richard Klein, Michelangelo Vianello, Fred Hasselman et al. · 1 Dec 2018

We conducted preregistered replications of 28 classic and contemporary published findings, with protocols that were peer reviewed in advance, to examine variation in effect magnitudes across samples and settings. Each protocol was administered to approximately half of 125 samples that comprised 15,305 participants from 36 countries and territories. Using the conventional criterion of statistical significance…

Many Analysts, One Data Set: Making Transparent How Variations in Analytic Choices Affect Results

Raphael Silberzahn, Eric Luis Uhlmann, Daniel P. Martin et al. · 23 Aug 2018

Twenty-nine teams involving 61 analysts used the same data set to address the same research question: whether soccer referees are more likely to give red cards to dark-skin-toned players than to light-skin-toned players. Analytic approaches varied widely across the teams, and the estimated effect sizes ranged from 0.89 to 2.93 ( Mdn = 1.31) in…
