In Photoshop Elements 9 Layer Masks were introduced. Now you can easily add a Layer Mask to any Layer with a click of the mouse.

If you apply an effect to an image, you might decide you don't want it overall. If your effect was done on a duplicate layer you could erase the part you don't want affected, and let the original show through. But once you erase it, there's no going back. That's the advantage a Layer Mask gives you. You can bring back all or just part of the effect and it's easily adjusted.
This tutorial shows a trick for using Layer Masks with versions of Elements before version 9 when Layer Masks were first introduced.
