| PASS |
A statistical test's power is the probability
that the test procedure will result in statistical significance. Power
is related to the sample size, the size of the type 1 (alpha) error, the
actual size of the effect, and the size of experimental error. All of
these must be considered in order to calculate statistical power.
As statistical significance is usually the desired outcome, planning and
running a study to achieve a high power is of prime importance to the
researcher. Because of the complexity of the calculations, the
determination of the power is often ignored or only a casual
attempt is made at its calculation by adopting some, so-called,
`rule-of-thumb.'
PASS lets you solve for power, sample size, effect
size, and alpha level. It automatically displays charts and graphs
along with numeric tables and text summaries in a portable format that
is cut and paste compatible with all word processors so you can easily
include the results in your proposal.
This program is a powerful and easy to
use package. If calculates sample size required for specified power
level for 37 different statistical tests
