Sample Size Calculation Workshop (November 8)
Sample Size Calculation Workshop (November 8)
Using free software for sample size & statistical power calculations
WHAT IS G*POWER? G*Power is a free statistical software package for power and sample size analysis. It offers point-and-click functionality and covers a wide variety of statistical tests.
In this 1-day workshop, concepts of statistical power and relevant statistical tests are covered in a non-technical way. Designed to be hands-on, the workshop focuses on the practical application of statistical methods. There will be plenty of opportunities to access in-class support.
TOPICS COVERED:
• understanding statistical power and the factors that influence it
• using G*Power to:
o optimise sample sizes
o calculate effect sizes
o graphically display results for power analyses
• t-tests
• Chi-squared tests
• F-tests, including ANOVA fixed effects and repeated measures.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Researchers and HDRs – especially those involved in the health sciences, life sciences and psychological sciences – or anyone who wants to learn about statistical power and sample size analysis.
PREREQUISITES
A basic knowledge of statistics is helpful but not essential. No prior experience using G*Power is assumed.
