es_from_pt_bis_r_pval function

Convert a p-value of a point-biserial correlation coefficient into several effect size measures

Convert a p-value of a point-biserial correlation coefficient into several effect size measures

es_from_pt_bis_r_pval( pt_bis_r_pval, n_exp, n_nexp, smd_to_cor = "viechtbauer", reverse_pt_bis_r_pval )

Arguments

  • pt_bis_r_pval: p-value of a point-biserial correlation coefficient
  • n_exp: total number of participants in the exposed group
  • n_nexp: total number of participants in the non exposed group
  • smd_to_cor: formula used to convert the pt_bis_r_pval value into a coefficient correlation.
  • reverse_pt_bis_r_pval: a logical value indicating whether the direction of the generated effect sizes should be flipped.

Returns

This function estimates and converts between several effect size measures.

natural effect size measureD + G
converted effect size measureOR + R + Z

Details

This function converts the p-value of a point biserial correlation into a Student's t-value.

The formula used to obtain this Student's t-value is :

t=pt(pt_bis_r_pval2,df=n_exp+n_nexp2) t = pt(\frac{pt\_bis\_r\_pval}{2}, df = n\_exp + n\_nexp - 2)

Calculations of the es_from_student_t function are then applied.

Examples

es_from_pt_bis_r_pval(pt_bis_r_pval = 0.2, n_exp = 121, n_nexp = 121)
