We investigate free-layer size D dependence of effective anisotropy field in nanoscale CoFeB/MgO magnetic tunnel junctions by homodyne-detected ferromagnetic resonance. The effective anisotropy field H_K^eff monotonically increases with decreasing D for a device with the reference-layer size much larger than the free-layer size. In contrast, H_K^eff does not increase in a monotonic manner for a device with the reference-layer size comparable to the free-layer size. We reveal that the difference can be explained by the variation of anisotropy field in the vicinity of the device edge.
