Effect sizes are highly relevant in quantitative research. They facilitate the comparison an quantitative synthesis of scientific studies. The main objective of this report is to present: a) a brief summary of the formulas used for conversion between the three main effect sizes used in the meta-analysis: the correlation coefficient, the standardized mean difference and the odds ratio; and b) the Rapid Effect Size Converter for Meta-Analysis (rESCMA), a open-source and browser-based app for efficiently converting and bulk-converting effect sizes and their variances based on the formulas proposed in this paper. In addition, a table summarizing the formulas is presented for easy accessibility and use.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
