Effect Size
• A significant effect depends:
• Size of the mean differences (effect)
• Size of the error variance
• Degrees of freedom
• Practical Significance
• Is the effect useful? Meaningful?
• Does the effect have any real utility?
Effect Size
• Raw Effect size –
• Just looking at the raw difference between the
groups
• Can be illustrated as the largest group
difference or smallest (depending)
• Can’t be compared across samples or
experiments
Effect Size
• Standardized Effect Size
• Expresses raw mean differences in standard
deviation units
• Usually referred to as Cohen’s d
d
Yl  Ys
MS S / A
Effect Size
• Standardized Effect Size
• Cohen established effect size categories
• .2 = small effect
• .5 = moderate effect
• .8 = large effect
Effect Size
• Percent of Overlap
• There are many effect size measures that indicate the
amount of total variance that is accounted for by the
effect
Effect Size
• Percent of Overlap
• Eta Squared

• simply a descriptive statistic
• Often overestimates the degree of overlap in the
population
Effect Size
• Omega Squared
SS A  df A (MSS / A )
 
SST  MSS / A
2
• This is a better estimate of the percent of
overlap in the population
• Corrects for the size of error and the number
of groups

Our Example
EPRS8540
• There was no significant price difference
among the three store types (F2, 9 = 3.12,
P > .05,  2  .41 ).
