Effect size statistic
|
A statistical formulation of an estimate of program effect that is comparable across outcome measures using different units or scales. Standardized mean differences and odds ratio are two
|
|
|
Mediator variable
|
A proximal outcome that change as a result of exposure to the program and then, in turn, influences a more distal outcome. The mediator variable provides the link
|
|
|
Meta-analysis
|
An analysis of effect size statistics derived from the quantitative results of multiple studies of the same or similar interventions for the purpose of summarizing and comparing the findings
|
|
|
Odds ratio
|
An effect size statistic that expresses the odds of a successful outcome for the intervention group relative to that of the control group.
|
|
|
Standardized mean difference
|
An effect size statistic that expresses the mean outcome difference between an intervention and control group in standard deviation units.
|
|
|
Statistical power
|
The probability that an observed program effect will be statistically significant when, in fact, it represents a real effect.If real effect is not found, there is a Type II error.
|
|
|
Type I error
|
When a program effect estimate is found to be statistically significant when the program has no effect.
|
|
|
Type II
|
When an program effect estimate is not found to be statistically significant when it does have an effect.
