My research paper takes into account the antecedents and consequences of Employee Wellbeing. It has 3 independent variables and 2 dependent variables. It also has 2 non-categorical moderator variables. I want to conduct an effect size analysis and having never done it before, I am not certain about the type of estimation to be used here. As there are multiple techniques and varying interpretations, need some suggestions.
Would really appreciate it if any reference materials/explanations on the interpretation of the techniques can be shared with me.
Thanks.
Dear Lopamudra Hati,
The first reference that comes to one's mind when the issue is effect size and its estimations is Cohen (1988). I am pretty sure you have already considered it beforehand but just in case anyone might need it, here it is: http://utstat.toronto.edu/~brunner/oldclass/378f16/readings/CohenPower.pdf
The book “Effect sizes for research” by Kim & Grissom might be worth a try. It helped me a lot to gain an insight into the different effect sizes.

I leave you two articles that can guide you about the effect size and its interpretation, which depends on the area of study and the interest of the case. You should be guided by the guidelines that research in your field reports, since it varies in different scientific areas and is limited by statistical power and sample size.
