I don’t really even know how to answer this... like, what is your definition of effective.

Pros:

The tourism industry profits from brighter evenings. Longer nights give people more time to go shopping, to restaurants, or other events, boosting the local economy.
The extra hour of daylight can be used for outdoor recreation like golf, soccer, baseball, running, etc.

Contributes to improved road safety by reducing pedestrian fatalities by 13% during dawn and dusk hours.

Another study found an 7% decrease in robberies following the spring shift

Less artificial light exposure because of longer days and light
