Persons as Effect Sizes

Abstract: Traditional indices of effect size are designed to answer questions about average group differences, associations between variables, and relative risk. For many researchers, an additional, important question is, “How many people in my study behaved or responded in a manner consistent with theoretical expectation?” We show how the answer to this question can be computed and reported as a straightforward percentage for a wide variety of study designs. This percentage essentially treats persons as an effect size,… Show more

“…Our results are in line with a recent study of Grice et al (2020), which re-analyzed the data sets of a number of published studies, showing that large percentages of the subjects in these studies responded opposite to theoretical predictions. Our results are also consistent with an experiment by Thomaes et al (2010), who asked pre-adolescents to assess their self-esteem, after which they were requested to create an online profile.…”

“…Note that whereas similar points regarding within-participant inference have been made elsewhere (Grice et al, 2020; Nachev et al, 2019; Smith and Little, 2018; Thiebaut de Schotten and Shallice, 2017), such results are typically considered to form a case study, without an inferential link that allows generalization to the population (Neuroscience, 2020) 1 . The methods presented here address this concern by providing an inferential bridge from within-participant tests to the population level.…”
