st: Effect size d from xtreg output

[Chelsea Garneau <chelsealynn.garneau@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I am conducting random intercept two-level regression analyses with mi
data and so in Stata I'm unable to obtain beta weights for my
coefficients.  Instead, I'm trying to calculate cohen's d for each
fixed effect predictor to provide a standardized measure of effect.  I
have the coefficient, the S.E. and the t-values.....would cohen's d
simply be the t-value divided by the S.E. for each item? Or am I
oversimplifying this?


Thank you!
