Arguments

f

Observed F-value from a main or an interaction effect.

N

Total design sample size.

df1

Degress of freedom for the effect in question aka "Numerator".

df2

Degrees of freedom "Error" aka "Denominator", "Within" or "Residual".

# P_eta_sq(f = 10, N = 60, df1 = 2, df2 = 57, alpha = 2.55, beta = 3.42)

# Note that, the "P_eta_sq(...)" when applied to ONE-WAY designs, is basically
# the same as "ETA-SQUARED" but when "P_eta_sq(...)" is applied to factorial
# designs it produces "PARTIAL ETA-SQUARED".
