• Beta () = P(Type II error) = P(Conclude the experimental groups are the same when they really are different)

• Power = 1 - = P(Conclude experimental groups are different when they really are!)

An Example Scenario

• Alpha =0.05, sigma=2

• |mu1 – mu2| = 2, that is, a two unit diff in means for a population

• Propose n1 = 10 and n2 = 10

The Key Point of the Review

• One conjectures the difference in means to estimate power in studies that compare means.

• In regression models, one conjectures the difference in R-square between a model that includes predictors of interest and a model without these predictors.

Regression Power and Sample Size

• Power for specific predictors in the presence of other covariates in a model.

• More complex to conceptualize than testing differences among means.

Plan B

• Specify the typical value of the multiple partial correlation coefficient between Y and X.

• Multiple correlation coefficient describes the overall relationship between Y and 2 or more predictors controlling for still other variables.

Using Our Example

• Say that we conjecture that the partial correlation between our Y and X’s of interest is:

• For our example this value was 0.408

Comments

• Power and sample size is ‘tricky.’• The n= 10 for each predictor will almost always under

power a study.

• Plan A or B using the matrix mult is likely the best. One can specify regular correlations instead of partial correlations.

• This talk was developed with fixed effects, arguably one should plan for random effects unless for an experiment. SAS can easily calculate this. Gatsonis tables provide power for random effect settings. (usually n’s are close)

Further Work for Somebody

• A corresponding multiple logistic regression approach, that is, powering more than one predictor of interest with additional covariates in the model.

Background

• Existing tools are based on Hsieh, Block, and Larsen (1998) paper, and Agresti (1996) text.– PASS– %powerlog macro

Macro Details

• Fit the full and the reduced model – In the reduced model one can exclude one or

more covariates of interest in order to test them simultaneously in the presence of other covariates

• Perform the likelihood ratio test with appropriate chi-square critical value based on correct number of degrees of freedom
