Calculating Cohen's D from ANCOVA results

Anton-24
Dear Listers-

I like to know the proper way to compute Cohen's D using the adjusted means
from ANCOVA results.  Can I convert the standard errors of the adjusted
means into variances or should I simply use the unadjusted variances?

Thanks, in advance.

Anton

Swank, Paul R
Use unadjusted variances to estimate the SD for effect sizes in ANCOVA.
They are more meaningful.
