RESI: An R Package for Robust Effect Sizes
share
Effect size indices are useful parameters that quantify the strength of association and are unaffected by sample size. There are many available effect size parameters and estimators, but it is difficult to compare effect sizes across studies as most are defined for a specific type of population parameter. We recently introduced a new Robust Effect Size Index (RESI) and confidence interval, which is advantageous because it is not model-specific. Here we present the RESI R package, which makes it easy to report the RESI and its confidence interval for many different model classes, with a consistent interpretation across parameters and model types. The package produces coefficient, ANOVA tables, and overall Wald tests for model inputs, appending the RESI estimate and confidence interval to each. The package also includes functions for visualization and conversions to and from other effect size measures. For illustration, we analyze and interpret three different model types.
