Increasing emphasis has been placed on the use of effect size reporting in analysis social science data. Nonetheless, remains inconsistent, and interpretation estimates continues to be confused. Researchers are presented with numerous sizes estimate options, not all which appropriate for every research question. Clinicians also may have little guidance relevant clinical practice. The current article provides a primer sciences. Common estimates, their use, interpretations as guide researchers.
A method is developed to enable emulsion polymerization be performed under RAFT control give living character without the problems that often affect such systems: formation of an oily layer, loss colloidal stability, or molecular weight control. Trithiocarbonate agents are used form short stabilizing blocks from a water-soluble monomer, which diblocks can created by subsequent hydrophobic monomer. These designed self-assemble micelles. Polymerization initially conditions avoid presence...
Publication bias remains a controversial issue in psychological science. The tendency of science to avoid publishing null results produces situation that limits the replicability assumption science, as replication cannot be meaningful without potential acknowledgment failed replications. We argue field often constructs arguments block publication and interpretation may further extinguished through questionable researcher practices. Given is dependent on process falsification, we these...
Concerns about problematic gaming behaviors deserve our full attention. However, we claim that it is far from clear these problems can or should be attributed to a new disorder. The empirical basis for Gaming Disorder proposal, such as in the ICD-11, suffers fundamental issues. Our main concerns are low quality of research base, fact current operationalization leans too heavily on substance use and gambling criteria, lack consensus symptomatology assessment gaming. act formalizing this...
The issue of publication bias in psychological science is one that has remained difficult to address despite decades discussion and debate. current article examines a sample 91 recent meta-analyses published American Psychological Association for Science journals the methods used these analyses identify control bias. Of studies analyzed, 64 (70%) made some effort analyze bias, 26 (41%) reported finding evidence Approaches controlling were heterogeneous among studies. studies, 57 (63%)...

Two studies examined the relationship between exposure to violent video games and aggression or violence in laboratory real life. Study 1 participants were either randomized allowed choose play a nonviolent game. Although males more aggressive than females, neither violent-video-game conditions nor previous real-life caused any differences aggression. 2 correlations trait aggression, criminal acts, both family violence. Results indicated that violence, male gender predictive of crime, but...
Youth violence, including bullying and other serious violent behaviors, has received increased political scientific attention over the past several decades. Although behavior among youth in schools declined decade, victimization of children by school settings remains a major issue concern. In response, number prevention intervention programs have been developed to reduce incidence violence schools. This meta-analysis attempted examine effect school-based anti-bullying programs. Results...
Violent video games have been a source of controversy in the United States and elsewhere for several decades. Considerable concern has raised public scientific communities about alleged deleterious effects violent games. These concerns may coincide with periodic moral panics media's influence, particularly on youth. This paper argues that negative exaggerated by some elements community, fitting past cycles media-focused panics. By contrast, potential positive game play ignored debate The...
