Slot: effect_size

Description: A quantitative measure of the magnitude and direction of an effect or association between the subject and object of an edge, as estimated by a statistical method. The specific metric used (e.g. Cohen's d, odds ratio, Pearson's r) is indicated by the companion 'effect type' slot.

Notes: The numeric value here is metric-dependent and should always be interpreted together with 'effect type'. For example, an effect size of 0.8 with effect type 'cohens_d' means a large standardized mean difference, whereas 0.8 with effect type 'pearsons_r' means a strong positive linear correlation.
