I came across this macro for calculating various effect size statistics, but I am unsure how to use it. Can someone show me how I would input in my data and run this?
For example, I would like to compute Cohen's d and Hedges' g. My values are the following:
NE = 103
NC = 100
ME = 1.44
MC = 1.43
SE = 0.65
SC = 0.59
%macro compeff(indata,outdata);

You need to create a dataset according to the description in the comment section:
/* INPUT DATA: */
/* NE: Sample size for Experimental Group */
/* NC: Sample size for Control Group */
/* ME: Treatment Effect for Experimental Group */
/* MC: Treatment Effect for Control Group */
/* SE: Standard Deviation for Experimental Group */
/* SC: Standard Deviation for Control Group */
Like
data in;
input ne nc me mc se sc;
datalines;
103 100 1.44 1.43 0.65 0.59
