q3 i? Effect size significantly varies by application duration (QB=13.554, p<.05); applications of 21-30 hours (ES=1.769) and 31-40 hours (ES=1.514) show large effects while 1-10 hours shows a medium effect (ES=.525). → Özgür Ulubey 2018

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Moderator analysis across the 63 studies grouped by application duration (1-10 to 41+ hours). The article reports the significant Qbetween statistic and per-level effect sizes, with 1-10 hours medium (ES=.525) and 21-30 and 31-40 hours large.

"it was found that the effect size significantly varies depending on the duration of experimental application (QB=13.554, p<.05). The effect size in the experimental application of 21-30 hours (ES=1.769) and 31-40 hours (ES=1.514) is large according to the Cohen’s (1988) classification."
