Power and Sample size for Proportion Data

An often used method in applied statistics is determining the sample size necessary to view statistically significant results. Given the intended power, we can calculate the required sample size. Given the intended sample size, we can calculate the resulting power. Before we go in to how this works, we need to define a few things. […]

Power and Sample Size for Normally Distributed Data

An often used method in applied statistics is determining the sample size necessary to view statistically significant results. Given the intended power, we can calculate the required sample size. Given the intended sample size, we can calculate the resulting power. Before we go in to how this works, we need to define a few things. […]
