VanHoudnos, Nathan M.; Greenhouse, Joel B. – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2016
When cluster randomized experiments are analyzed as if units were independent, test statistics for treatment effects can be anticonservative. Hedges proposed a correction for such tests by scaling them to control their Type I error rate. This article generalizes the Hedges correction from a posttest-only experimental design to more common designs…
