After Converting Everything to the Appropriate Statistics, Researchers Obtained a Summary

Short Answer

After converting everything to the appropriate statistics, researchers obtained a summary effect size of r = 0.16. You are worried that this effect size is fairly small, and may not be interpreted as well as it could be. To help demonstrate the importance of this summary effect size, you create a BESD for the effect size. (a) Given r = 0.16, construct a BESD for this summary effect. (b) Interpret, and explain the implications of two of the cells in the BESD, to illustrate how this BESD can help emphasize the practical importance of even a small effect size.
