Significant is just not enough!
The goal of this package is to provide utilities to work with indices of effect size and standardized parameters, allowing computation and conversion of indices such as Cohen’s d, r, odds-ratios, etc.
Run the following to install the stable release of effectsize from CRAN:
install.packages("effectsize")
Or you can install the latest development version from R-universe:
install.packages("effectsize", repos = "https://easystats.r-universe.dev/")
Click on the buttons above to access the package documentation and the easystats blog, and check-out these vignettes:
This package is focused on indices of effect size. Check out the
package website for a
full list of features and functions provided by
effectsize
.
library(effectsize)
options(es.use_symbols = TRUE) # get nice symbols when printing! (On Windows, requires R >= 4.2.0)
Tip:
Instead of
library(effectsize)
, uselibrary(easystats)
. This will make all features of the easystats-ecosystem available.To stay updated, use
easystats::install_latest()
.
The package provides functions to compute indices of effect size.

And more…
The package also provides ways of converting between different effect sizes.
d_to_r(d = 0.2)
## [1] 0.0995
oddsratio_to_riskratio(2.6, p0 = 0.4)
## [1] 1.59
And for recovering effect sizes from test statistics.
F_to_d(15, df = 1, df_error = 60)
## d | 95% CI
## -------------------
## 1.00 | [0.46, 1.53]
F_to_r(15, df = 1, df_error = 60)
## r | 95% CI
## -------------------
## 0.45 | [0.22, 0.61]
F_to_eta2(15, df = 1, df_error = 60)
## η² (partial) | 95% CI
## ---------------------------
## 0.20 | [0.07, 1.00]
##
## - One-sided CIs: upper bound fixed at [1.00].
The package allows for an automated interpretation of different indices.
interpret_r(r = 0.3)
## [1] "large"
## (Rules: funder2019)
Different sets of “rules of thumb” are implemented (guidelines are detailed here) and can be easily changed.
interpret_cohens_d(d = 0.45, rules = "cohen1988")
## [1] "small"
## (Rules: cohen1988)
interpret_cohens_d(d = 0.45, rules = "gignac2016")
## [1] "moderate"
## (Rules: gignac2016)
