Not directly used.

## Note

"Since g is so transparently clear a unit, it is expected that workers in any given substantive area of the behavioral sciences will very frequently be able to set relevant [effect size] values without the proposed conventions, or set up conventions of their own which are suited to their area of inquiry." - Cohen, 1988, page 147.

## Rules

Rules apply to equally to positive and negative g (i.e., they are given as absolute values).
