In meta-analysis, where the purpose is to combine multiple effect sizes, the uncertainty in the effect size is used to weigh effect sizes, so that large studies are considered more important than small studies. The uncertainty in the effect size is calculated differently for each type of effect size, but generally only requires knowing the study's sample size (<i>N</i>), or the number of observations (<i>n</i>) in each group. </p><p>Reporting effect sizes or estimates thereof (effect estimate [EE], estimate of effect) is considered good practice when presenting empirical research findings in many fields.<sup id="cite_ref-Wilkinson1999_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Wilkinson1999-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Nakagawa2007_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Nakagawa2007-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The reporting of effect sizes facilitates the interpretation of the importance of a research result, in contrast to its <a href="/wiki/Statistical_significance" title="Statistical significance">statistical significance</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Ellis2010_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Ellis2010-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Effect sizes are particularly prominent in <a href="/wiki/Social_science" title="Social science">social science</a> and in <a href="/wiki/Medical_research" title="Medical research">medical research</a> (where size of <a href="/wiki/Average_treatment_effect" title="Average treatment effect">treatment effect</a> is important). </p><p>Effect sizes may be measured in relative or absolute terms.

It is appropriate when the research question focuses on the degree of association between two <a href="/wiki/Binary_data" title="Binary data">binary variables</a>. For example, consider a study of spelling ability. In a control group, two students pass the class for every one who fails, so the odds of passing are two to one (or 2/1 = 2). In the treatment group, six students pass for every one who fails, so the odds of passing are six to one (or 6/1 = 6). The effect size can be computed by noting that the odds of passing in the treatment group are three times higher than in the control group (because 6 divided by 2 is 3).

Using the example above, the <i>probabilities</i> for those in the control group and treatment group passing is 2/3 (or 0.67) and 6/7 (or 0.86), respectively. The effect size can be computed the same as above, but using the probabilities instead. Therefore, the relative risk is 1.28. Since rather large probabilities of passing were used, there is a large difference between relative risk and odds ratio. Had <i>failure</i> (a smaller probability) been used as the event (rather than <i>passing</i>), the difference between the two measures of effect size would not be so great. </p><p>While both measures are useful, they have different statistical uses.
