A Generalized Formula for Converting Chi-Square Tests to Effect Sizes for Meta-Analysis

The common formula used for converting a chi-square test into a correlation coefficient for use as an effect size in meta-analysis has a hidden assumption which may be violated in specific instances, leading to an overestimation of the effect size. A corrected formula is provided.
