Effect Size Reporting Practices in Communication Research |
| |
| Abstract: | In recent years, reporting estimates of effect size have become more important in social and behavioral science research. Four full volumes (2003–2006) of four influential communication journals were examined. The findings show that the rate of reporting effect size was very high for some types of statistical analyses (e.g., correlation, regression), and considerably lower for others (e.g., t-test, χ 2 test). The results provide a picture about the current state of affairs in terms of effect size reporting in communication research. |
