EFFECT‐SIZE ESTIMATION: A COMMENTARY ON WOLF AND BASSLER
评论Wolf和Bassler提出的用一般线性模型估计效应量方差解释度的方法,指出其与对比估计不一致、在非正交设计中难以解释、易受无关因素影响,并质疑是否应称其为“重要性”。
Wolf and Bassler [10] have presented a general linear model approach to the estimation of a variance‐accounted‐for measure of effect magnitude. This commentary questions the usefulness of such a measure, citing its inconsistency with contrast estimates, problems with its interpretation in nonorthogonal designs, and its susceptibility to extraneous influence unrelated to observed differences among group means. In addition, it questions whether the term “importance” should be applied to such a measure.
