内容简介：

Use and interpretation of effect size in empirical studies have become more important in social and behavioral science research in the last two decades, as this has been advocated as good research practice by professional organizations (e.g., American Psychological Association, or APA). Furthermore, some prominent journals in psychology and education have made it a requirement for reporting effect size in the research findings. However, there is a lack of understanding about the current state of affairs with regard to effect size measures in different analytical contexts. In this talk, the relevance of effect size in empirical studies will be discussed, and effect size measures in different analytical contexts will be illustrated. Finally, some guidelines will be provided in understanding and interpreting effect sizes in empirical studies.
