Power and Sample Size David M. Thompson, Ph.D., P.T. Associate Professor Dept. of Biostatistics and Epidemiology College of Public Health, OUHSC

Power and sample size calculations EFFECT SIZE Specify or estimate any two to calculate the third.

Power The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when a specified alternative is true. Both null and alternative hypotheses must be specified; the alternate hypothesis specifies a clinically meaningful effect size.

Sample Size To calculate sample size, first must specify:  Power = (1-) Effect size Difference in means Difference in proportions

Effect size Meaningful and detectable difference in group means, proportions, etc. … …including estimate of within group variability

In study planning: Power is customarily prespecified at .8 or .9 A minimal clinically important difference focuses the decision on the effect size, from which we calculate sample size. If practical conditions constrain the sample size, we specify that, then calculate the effect size we have prespecified power to detect with that sample.
