The current comprehensive review investigated the most recent effect size reporting and interpreting practices of 1,243 studies published in 14 academic journals from 2005 to 2007. Overall, 49.1% of the articles reported effect size and 56.7% of them interpreted effect size. A series of Chi-square tests suggested that (a) effect size reporting and interpreting practices statistically differ between types of journals; (b) only effect size interpreting practice differs between different NHST methods; (c) neither effect size reporting nor interpreting practice differ between years. The importance of reporting and interpreting effect size is also discussed. 2008-09-24 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1216868724 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1216868724 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
