Abstract

In studies comparing two interventions it is useful to estimate the effect size that one intervention produces with respect to the other. The difference between the two effects is not useful and it is necessary to standardize it to obtain more robust and comparable parameters. We focus on some of these parameters that help us estimate the effect size based on the difference of two means.
