A myriad of factors including the study design, type of power analysis, sampling technique employed, and acceptable limits of error fixed play a decisive role in estimating the sample size. However, the advent of free to use software and websites for sample size estimation has actually diluted ...
Sample size estimation and power analysis for clinical research studies. Determining the optimal sample size for a study assures an adequate power to detect statistical significance. Hence, it is a critical step in the design of... Suresh,K.,P. - 《Journal of Human Reproductive Sciences》 被引...
We describe and compare four different methods for estimating sample size and power, when the primary outcome of the study is a Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) measure. These methods are: 1. assuming a Normal distribution and comparing two means;

We describe and compare four different methods for estimating sample size and power, when the primary outcome of the study is a Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) measure. These methods are: 1. assuming a Normal distribution and comparing two means; 2. using a non-parametric method; 3....
Alternatively, there are several statistical softwares and online calculators, which can compute sample size for various research designs. Common types of study designs in medical research are estimation of a proportion or a mean in a defined population; and hypothesis testing for a difference in ...

Hence, estimating an appropriate sampling size is a very important aspect of a research design to allow the researcher to make inferences from the sample statistics to the statistical population. The power of a sample survey lies in the ability to estimate an appropriate sample size to obtain ...
Sample-size estimation based on the traditional method of statistical significance is not appropriate for a study designed to make an inference about realworld significance, which requires interpretation of magnitude of an outcome. I present here a spreadsheet using two new methods for estimating sampl...
