I recognize Demetri used the word "effect" a couple posts up, but I assumed he was speaking more generically, and I have full confidence he understands the difficulties around inferring causation from observational data

i'm not making any claims about causation

Instead of normalizing, you could just put in the desired duration in a g-computation post-processing step
November 27, 2025 at 7:35 PM
Seems reasonable, to me
November 27, 2025 at 7:09 PM
Yeah, I think the change-score ANCOVA basically does this (again, presuming the measures are Gaussian-ish).
November 27, 2025 at 6:56 PM
If it's Gaussian, maybe consider: lm(final - initial ~ initial + duration)

Wow. I haven't had one in many years, either. TBH, I don't even recall if I liked it

this is an abomination

You should sell tickets to give that message

Sounds reasonable. As the great Dan John has said: "The goal is to keep the goal the goal."

Seems like you're making a case for not doing what you're doing
November 24, 2025 at 12:31 AM
True. You need good sturdy kitchen scissors for this.
November 24, 2025 at 12:05 AM
seems like a different issue

let's just focus on throwing shade at the social psychologists

It's after hours somewhere

I'm not part of the SMD hater crowd, but I'm also totally okay with individual research teams and/or research communities advocating for other kinds of measures. As long as you're quantifying the effect size in some meaningful way, I'm largely on board.
