Statistics review 4: Sample size calculations
The present review introduces the notion of statistical power and the hazard of under-powered studies. The problem of how to calculate an ideal sample size is also discussed within the context of factors that affect power, and specific methods for the calculation of sample size are presented for two common scenarios, along with extensions to the simplest case.

چکیده: فرض کنید که تابعی از اپسیلون یک مجموع نامتناهی از احتمالات موزون مربوط به مجموع های جزئی براساس یک دنباله از متغیرهای تصادفی مستقل و همتوزیع باشد، و همچنین فرض کنید توابعی مانند g و h وجود دارند که هرگاه امید ریاضی توان دوم x متناهی و امیدریاضی x صفر باشد، در این صورت می توان حد حاصلضرب این توابع را بصورت تابعی از امید ریاضی توان دوم x نوشت. حالت عکس نیز برقرار است. همچنین ما با استفاده...
15 صفحه اولPrinciples of sample size calculation
In most areas in life, it is difficult to work with populations and hence researchers work with samples. The calculation of the sample size needed depends on the data type and distribution. Elements include consideration of the alpha error, beta error, clinically meaningful difference, and the variability or standard deviation. The final number arrived at should be increased to include a safety...

متن کاملSample size calculation: Basic principles
Addressing a sample size is a practical issue that has to be solved during planning and designing stage of the study. The aim of any clinical research is to detect the actual difference between two groups (power) and to provide an estimate of the difference with a reasonable accuracy (precision). Hence, researchers should do a priori estimate of sample size well ahead, before conducting the stu...
