Abstract

The purposes of this study were to report the use of power and effect sizes in articles in the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research (JSLHR). A census of all articles published between the years 2009 - 2012 (n = 436) in JSLHR was conducted to gather data about report of power and effect size. Over 97% (426/436) of the articles did not report power and over 42% (187/436) did not report any effect size measure. Articles not reporting power in each year in this census range from 96.5% to 98.9% and those not reporting any effect size ranges from 33% to 50% over a period of four years. The discipline would benefit from embracing higher standards and encouraging authors to report the measures of power and effect size in their articles.
