Answer: d. The effect size is bigger when the standard deviation of population gets smaller.
Explaination: Formula for effect size is,
Effect size = μ 1 μ 2 σ
That means, standard deviation of population(sigma) is inversally proportional to effect size.The effect size is bigger when the standard deviation of population gets smaller.
