Using effect coding for comparing models in social research
- Keywords:

- Abstract
-
Often researchers are required to examine a specific model under 2 different situations. In several studies cited here, authors compared results descriptively without the use of inferential statistics. By using a series of regression tests suggested by Kerlinger and Pedhazur in another context, the 2 situations can be compared statistically. An example from a recent study is used to illustrate the technique and several advantages are suggested.
