Description

After cursorily reviewing the material contained in Dr. O'Brien's "Intro" workshop on this topic, attention will focus on how to use UnifyPow and capabilities already in the SAS System to improve the depth of your sample-size analysis, to handle more complex situations, and to look at sample-size issues in ways that are often better than those currently employed. Methods to be discussed include common tests under the multivariate general linear model; using the 'exemplary data' approach to handle virtually any problem that falls under the generalized linear model, including logistic regression, log-linear models for contingency tables, and Poisson regression; tests for equivalence; and using data on hand to get point estimates and confidence intervals for the power of a proposed study. We will also show that although the inference method may be frequentist, using elementary Bayesian constructs can sharpen and simplify the sample-size considerations.
