c. medium
d. large

f. cannot be determined
Answer: According to Cohen, what effect size is represented by a correlation of r= - .50?
Cohen’s d is known as the difference of two population means and it is divided by the standard deviation from the data.
For r from Pearson correlation, Cohen (1988) gives the following interpretation:
small, 0.10 – < 0.30
medium, 0.30 – < 0.50
large, ≥ 0.50
Therefore, medium effect size is represented by a correlation of r= - .50.
The option c. is correct answer.
