If the two groups have the same n, then the effect size is simply calculated by subtracting the means and dividing the result by the pooled standard deviation. The resulting effect size is called dCohen and it represents the difference between the groups in terms of their common standard deviation. It is used f. e. for comparing two experimental groups. In case, you want to do a pre-post comparison in single groups, calculator 4 or 5 should be more suitable, since they take the dependency in the data into account.

If there are relevant differences in the standard deviations, Glass suggests not to use the pooled standard deviation but the standard deviation of the control group. He argues that the standard deviation of the control group should not be influenced, at least in case of non-treatment control groups. This effect size measure is called Glass' Δ ("Glass' Delta"). Please type the data of the control group in column 2 for the correct calculation of Glass' Δ.

Finally, the Common Language Effect Size (CLES; McGraw & Wong, 1992) is a non-parametric effect size, specifying the probability that one case randomly drawn from the one sample has a higher value than a randomly drawn case from the other sample. In the calculator, we take the higher group mean as the point of reference, but you can use (1 - CLES) to reverse the view.
