[@Xeando]

One of the best videos that explains any sort of statistics concept I've ever seen. Very impressive.

[@StevenBradburn]

Thank you

[@jacelyn5113]

I have never thought of Cohen's d as simply being the number of standard deviations between the two groups, it makes so much sense now! Thank you!

[@travisjohnson3382]

This was so much more helpful than the material they had me read in my master's class.

[@texaspolygraph]

Outstanding explanation, description, and examples. This person is an exceptional instructor. Thanks so much.

[@StevenBradburn]

Many thanks for your support and kind words Mark

[@TheeCoachg]

Coming to watch this before my stats final and you explained it PERFECTLY well

[@PunmasterSTP]

How'd your final go?

[@sophiewhittaker730]

I have been watching so many videos on statistics and this by far is the best and easy to follow!

[@StevenBradburn]

Many thanks for your kind comments Sophie. Glad it was helpful!

[@vitor12475]

sup Sophie

[@PunmasterSTP]

Out of curiosity, have you ever come across @StatQuest?

[@peteratoyebi2645]

This is the simplest explanation ever. Thanks so much

[@ajaxtelamonian5134]

AH man this was so helpful as i didnt pass GCSE maths but have stats as a compulsory subject on my UNI course. This was potentially invaluable thank you.

[@StevenBradburn]

Glad it helped!

[@PunmasterSTP]

Out of curiosity, how have your studies been going?

[@benhascom8338]

I often come across stats videos where everyone in the comments is like ‘wow this was so clear I finally understand!’ While I’m there like ‘wtf, I still don’t understand!’ This was literally the first time I can join the gang and congratulate you on an explanation even a troglodyte like me can comprehend! Great stuff :) thank You!

[@niniswe246]

Thank you so much . I have been trying to understand what is effect size and now I learnt it very clearly . I do want to learn the sample size too.

[@mytong5338]

Great video and very clear to explain Cohen's d. Thank you!

[@tarask5717]

This video was so helpful thank you! I have been trying for days to understand cohen’s d 😬

[@plurprincess06]

Thank you soo much! I was really struggling with this concept 😁

[@paulettegayle8423]

Concise and very clear. The best.

[@StevenBradburn]

Thank you :)

[@erichacop3005]

Phenomenal video! I was wondering how would one obtain the confidence intervals for cohen's d?

[@vitorlucasfranco]

This video helped me too much. Thank you.

[@joanbrennan6264]

Well presented and easy to follow and understand. Thanks

[@Raymonddoc1]

THis was really excellent. Thank you. Clear and informative. Thank you.

[@StevenBradburn]

Thanks Raymond

[@juanjoserojasconstain6561]

Thanks, gentle men.

[@tobinwazzan]

The explanation really worked for me. Thank you so much.

[@StevenBradburn]

Glad it helped!

[@wasafisafi612]

Thank you for your explanation. It make sense to me now. Thank you

[@karinacorona4791]

Thank you so much! the explanation was clear.

[@StevenBradburn]

Very welcome. And thanks for the feedback

[@haneulkim4902]

Amazing video, simply explained!

[@lizgoldstein4256]

Thank you so much -- this is extremely helpful! I have calculated the p-values, and while all my groups yielded significant differences, I wanted to know about effect size. I was wondering if the Cohen's d still works if we have 6 groups (and we compare each set of them to each other), but the subjects (n=22) are the same in each group. Just the treatment is different.

[@NedSar85]

Brutally clear, cheers!

[@haroldasraz]

Great explanation. Cheers.

[@user-lg8yj9sp4c]

Are we using N or N-1 while we are calculating the standard deviation?

[@PaulRamen]

If you happen to know the SD of the entire sample pop, you just use it in the denominator ?

[@dmmath-tutor5769]

Excellent video.

[@misterspiff7288]

I like the animation package you're using to do your slides. What is it?

[@StevenBradburn]

Thanks. It's Doodly

[@tutkuisabel6298]

What do you do when d= negative? What does it mean?

[@vee9882]

In my statistics book regarding Cohen's d Effect Size Conventions table it states: (Small d 0.8). It's the medium effect size that is different than in your video. Is it because, as you stated, they should not be interpreted rigidly? And if so, could you say that one cannot determine which values are greater if they are within the same range? For example, a value of 0.35 and a value of 0.2 in the medium effect range from my book would be the same effect, and one cannot state that 0.3 has a bigger effect?

[@lentillka133]

Hi there! Thanks for the perfect presentation! I have one more question. How to calculate Cohens d when I am looking for effect between one subject and 100 people in control group (case-control study). I am not able to find anything on the internet. Thanks a lot.

[@erikopraus8152]

wow.. so good thank you!!!

[@saragh1266]

Great tutorial! Thanks!

[@StevenBradburn]

You're welcome!

[@nabarcheto7950]

Thank you so much!!!

[@hossiluc]

Awesome video, thanks

[@StevenBradburn]

Thank you

[@Luna-ft8yh]

amazing, thank you!

[@ivanpazmino2250]

increible, thank you very much

[@maximilianodelatorre2513]

Super clear!!! thx!

[@juhuigeng9151]

I like this video, very helpful!

[@StevenBradburn]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kousumibrahma1308]

Hi, can my d value be negative

[@lifangpan9201]

Very clear!

[@alona24]

You found thst d=1.479 How did you come to the conclusion of effect size?

[@Anonymousus123]

Thanq sir

[@syrenafung2174]

the best video

[@rasto62]

Fuck, this video is good! I am now a loyal subscriber, amazing content man!!!!

Welcome aboard Talayin!

[@yiyuanzhang6335]

how to calculate standard deviation of cohen's d?

[@jojget]

Thank you

[@niklasscholl3744]

Smooth! Thanks!

[@Miguel10111948]

Very good explanation how tô interpret the effect size order of magnitude!

[@StevenBradburn]

Thanks Miguel :)

[@jennifertatianafriassalaza4015]

which is the maximum value that a cohen's d can reach? you say larger than 0.8 is large, but is there a limit? like is it possible a cohen's d of 2.7?

[@StevenBradburn]

Hi Jennifer, In theory, there is no maximum value for the Cohen's d. Sure, a value of 2.7 is possible. In terms of interpreting this, this will likely depend on the field of study. Thanks, Steven

[@andresfelipehurtadomejia7510]

ty

[@learn5081]

then the cohen's d 1.4xxx in the example is a very large value, correct?

[@StevenBradburn]

That is correct :)

[@tombatts126]

Perfection

[@PunmasterSTP]

Who needs a Nintendo DS when there's Cohen's ds? 😎

[@meeraguzarish5945]

can cohens d be negative?

[@StevenBradburn]

Yes. It all depends on what order you enter the mean values in the equation.

[@johnheiss9954]

So distracted by the way he writes numbers

[@benysmart1643]

Thank you
