Mac.

This programme (or "program" for our American visitors) will compute effect size estimates for use in Meta-analyses. It will compute the Cohen's d effect size estimate, apply Hedges' Adjustment for sample size (to Cohen's d) and also provide Hedges' g effect size estimate. It will also provide 95% confidence intervals for the derived effect sizes. It contains a full help help file and is really quite self explanatory.
You can save files, open saved files and generate a printed one page summary report to keep in your records. It also contains a built-in screen capture device and a calculator.
You should download this file first as it is quite small. However, should you have problems and the programme is trying to access files you don't have on your computer then you can download this version which contains all the runtime support files that are needed (but is over 7 MB large). Some extra files are also available here.

Effect Size Generator - Version 3.5 (Professional Edition)
This is currently not available for free download. It has some minor
corrections, extra analyses and a huge help file on effect size. It allows one
to select which sd to use in the analyses, computes all confidence intervals and
allows one to convert different effect sizes (e.g., One way ANOVA F value to
Cohen's d). It also enables meta-analyses to be conducted and provides Fail-Safe
N statistics. This can be downloaded from the ClinTools website at
www.clintools.com.

Cleaner code & colour coded text boxes this will be the last version until a
full point release.
Effect Size Generator -
Version 2.2
Database redesigned and starting set-up improved. Now saves files as "*.esg" and
registers esg file extensions to the programme. Once a file has been saved it
can even be opened by a double-click (thanks to
Daniel Trembath for an incredibly quick
turn-around explanation of how to pass the global variable 'command' onto an
'open' function following a double-click - and he contracts out too!).
Effect Size Generator -
Version 2.1
Now Includes t-statistics; can print to any printer and minor cosmetic changes
Effect Size Generator -
Version 2.0 (no need for database controls with this download - use this
version if you are having problems running the current version and the large 'support
version' didn't work either).
Great big spanking new version. Big changes! You can now save files, open saved files and generate a printed one
page summary report to keep in your records. You can now even save and email
your own study details to a colleague!!
Effect Size Generator -
Version 1.2
Buffer overflow bug fixed (can now have a total sample size greater than 32,000)
Effect Size Generator -
Version 1.1
Answers rounded to 5 decimal points to avoid
the confusion of numbers such as "5.286539E-2".
