@statisticsfun Thanks for the reply and this tutorial video is useful in calculating effect-sizes in the basis of my research. I'm still confused on how to tell whether or not an effect size (e.g. d=1.1) is a small, medium, or large effect. How do I know when its >.50 or <.50???
Suppose I have a random number generator control group with a mean of 88,576 and a standard deviation of 0.13 while the experimental group has the same mean, but a standard deviation of 2.07.
So in order to calculate the effect-size using cohen's d, I subtract those 2 means, add those standard deviations together and divide by 2 right?
@Norfeldt I use a variety of different programs to create my videos -- not just one product.
The idea behind MyBookSucks and the tagline "party more study less" is to attract those students who struggle and eventually learn to hate math subjects (stats, econ, , maths). Most students just want to pass these subjects and move on.
@statisticsfun It's funny because I never saw statistics as boring but only the way it was taught as boring. Your lectures on the other hand is much more interesting than my books - which is why your site MyBookSucks make sense. I'm looking very much forward to your future videos.
Sometimes things are boring if you don't know the use of it. How about applied statistics - how to design experiments?

@statisticsfun So...let me get this straight:
Suppose I have a random number generator control group with a mean of 88,576 and a standard deviation of 0.13 while the experimental group has the same mean, but a standard deviation of 2.07.
So in order to calculate the effect-size using cohen's d, I subtract those 2 means, add those standard deviations together and divide by 2 right?
I got d=1.1
Is this correct or am I missing something???

A very very good video.
What program did you use to make this presentation with all the effects?
(I don't like the last comment "Study less party more" - how about "Learning that makes you understand"

@Norfeldt Thanks for your comments and they are much appreciated. Yes I do have several videos on how to design experiments in the works.

@statisticsfun By the way, is it possible to calculate effect-size only with an experimental group or control group???
IceAges14Aces 2 months ago
@IceAges14Aces Well, I guess so, but typically you are trying to compare experimental results with some sort of baseline (control group).

Thank you very much. A coherent and visually comprensive explanation I wish I had back in faculty...
