Converts d (mean difference) reported in primary study to r (correlation coefficient) where sample size of the treatment group is not equal to the sample size of the comparison group (see section 12.5.4, Borenstein, 2009; pp. 234).
r_from_d1(d, n.1, n.2, var.d)
Arguments
d: Mean difference statistic (d) reported in primary study.
n.1: sample size of group one reported in primary study.
n.2: sample size of group two reported in primary study.
var.d: variance of d reported in primary study.
Returns
Computes a correlation coefficient (r).
