Constructing Confidence Intervals For Effect Sizes In Anova Designs, Li-Ting Chen, Chao-Ying Joanne Peng Nov 2013

Constructing Confidence Intervals For Effect Sizes In Anova Designs, Li-Ting Chen, Chao-Ying Joanne Peng

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods

A confidence interval for effect sizes provides a range of plausible population effect sizes (ES) that are consistent with data. This article defines an ES as a standardized linear contrast of means. The noncentral method, Bonett’s method, and the bias-corrected and accelerated bootstrap method are illustrated for constructing the confidence interval for such an effect size. Results obtained from the three methods are discussed and interpretations of results are offered.


Bootstrap Interval Estimation Of Reliability Via Coefficient Omega, Miguel A. Padilla, Jasmin Divers May 2013

Bootstrap Interval Estimation Of Reliability Via Coefficient Omega, Miguel A. Padilla, Jasmin Divers

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods

Three different bootstrap confidence intervals (CIs) for coefficient omega were investigated. The CIs were assessed through a simulation study with conditions not previously investigated. All methods performed well; however, the normal theory bootstrap (NTB) CI had the best performance because it had more consistent acceptable coverage under the simulation conditions investigated.
