Video 1: Between- and Within-Subjects Designs

Learning Objective: 11-1: About the two types of dependent designs--matched and repeated measures. | 11-2: To identify the advantages and drawbacks of dependent designs.

Description: Compares the characteristics of between-group experiments and within-subjects experiments (matched or repeated measures).

Web Resources

Web 1: Calculate Effect Size When Comparing Two Groups

Learning Objective: 11-4: How to compute the confidence interval and effect size for dependent t tests.

Description: An online calculator to compute Cohen’s d or rpb. If you choose to report a proportion of variance accounted for (rpb2) as the effect size, be sure the square the correlation that the calculator produces. For dependent samples, only use the first online calculator in which you input means and standard deviations.

Web 2: Interpret Results

Learning Objective: 11-3: How to compute and interpret dependent-groups t tests. | 11-4: How to compute the confidence interval and effect size for dependent t tests. | 11-5: How to compute and interpret dependent groups one-way ANOVAs.

Description: Provides visual explanations of how to interpret statistical significance and effect sizes. Also discusses practical significance.

Web 3: Cohen’s d Effect Size

Learning Objective: 11-4: How to compute the confidence interval and effect size for dependent t tests.

Description: An interactive visualization of Cohen’s d effect size.

Data sets

Practice calculating dependent-samples t tests and one-way within-samples ANOVAs with a data analysis program. Use any of the data sets available on the “Datasets” tab.
