A Note on Cohen's d From a Partitioned Linear Regression Model

Applications 2022-10-25 v1

Abstract

In this note we introduce a generalized formula for Cohen's dd under the presence of additional independent variables, providing a measure for the size of a possible effect concerning the location difference of a variable in two groups. This is done by employing the so-called Frisch-Waugh-Lovell theorem in a partitioned linear regression model. The generalization is motivated by demonstrating the relationship to appropriate tt and FF statistics. Our discussion is further illustrated by inference from a publicly available data set.
