In esc: Effect Size Computation for Meta Analysis

esc 0.5.1

General

• Deprecated functions have been removed.
• Update website (https://strengejacke.github.io/esc).

esc 0.5.0

General

• Reduce package dependencies.
• Function that convert from one effect size into another are now prefixed with convert_*(), instead of esc_*() (e.g. convert_d2r() instead of esc_d2r()).

Changes to functions

• esc_mean_sd(), esc_mean_se() and esc_mean_gain() can now calculate effect-sizes for within-subject-designs, when argument r is given.

esc 0.4.1

Bug fixes

• Fix issue with wrong computation of confidence intervals when converting effect sizes from d to f (esc_d2f()).

esc 0.4.0

General

• Functions now also return effect sizes Cohen's f or eta squared.

New functions

• More functions to convert effect size into other effect size measures (cohens_f(), odds_ratio(), log_odds(), pearsons_r(), eta_squared() and cohens_d()).

Bug fixes

• In rare cases, esc_mean_sd() tried to calculate the square root of negative values when computing the pooled standard deviance. In such cases, an alternative formular for the pooled SD is used.

esc 0.3.2

Bug fixes

• combine_esc() did not work for effect sizes computed with esc_t(), when the returned effect size was r.

esc 0.3.1

Bug fixes

• effect_sizes() did not always properly extract study names and used numeric indices instead character values.

esc 0.3.0

New functions

• effect_sizes() to generate a data frame with results of multiple effect size computations, based on data from another data frame.

Bug fixes

• Fix control statements with condition with greater than one, which currently give a warning, but in future R versions may throw an error.

esc 0.2.0

New functions

• write_esc() as a convenient wrapper to write results to an Excel csv-file.
