esc_2x2 giving different results than Wilson's about esc HOT 8 OPEN

Where do you see discrepancies?

esc::esc_2x2(
  grp1yes = 205,
  grp1no = 98,
  grp2yes = 512,
  grp2no = 178,
  es.type = "or"
)

And for logits:

esc::esc_2x2(
  grp1yes = 205,
  grp1no = 98,
  grp2yes = 512,
  grp2no = 178

The discrepancy was in the r calculation, not OR. Thanks!

The calculator returns RR, not r.

Ok, the esc package documentation says differently, but it is helpful to know that. Thank you.

Not sure what you mean here? The function returns the effect size that is given in the es.type argument, which is by default logits. The web-based 'Practical Meta-Analysis Effect Size Calculator' returns OR, which you can also return from esc_2x2(), and the results are the same.

I also encountered this problem. esc_2x2(23,29,10,3, es.type="r")gave r = -0.3019; but the website showed different results.

from esc.

Furthermore, esc_2x2(23,29,10,3, es.type="r")give different result from esc_2x2(23,10,29,3, es.type="r").
