expost

German to English Social Sciences Mathematics & Statistics Psychology research
From a psychology thesis paper detailing sampling procedure of a study:

Die Effektgrößenbestimmung setzt voraus, dass man eine Vorstellung darüber hat, wie stark sich zwei Populationen A und B angesichts der Merkmalsstreuung mindestens unterscheiden müssen. In diesem Fall wurde die Effektgröße expost, nach Abschluss der Untersuchung bestimmt.

I would leave it out because it's a tautology - it goes on to say "nach Abschluss der Untersuchung".
Horst Huber (X) Dec 28, 2011:
Soweit ich mich erinnere, wird "ex post" ganz entsprechend zu "ex post facto" gebraucht , wenn es sich um Argumentationen handelt.
Esther Park (asker) Dec 28, 2011:
Never mind. (maybe)
I think she means ex post facto?? i.e. retroactively...
