Power Two Sample t-test

Description

[Superseded]

Power analysis for TOST for independent t-test (Cohen's d). This function is no longer maintained please use power_t_TOST.

Usage

powerTOSTtwo(alpha, statistical_power, N, low_eqbound_d, high_eqbound_d)

powerTOSTtwo.raw(
  alpha,
  statistical_power,
  N,
  sdpooled,
  low_eqbound,
  high_eqbound,
  delta = 0
)

Arguments

alpha

alpha used for the test (e.g., 0.05)

statistical_power

desired power (e.g., 0.8)

N

sample size per group (e.g., 108)

low_eqbound_d

lower equivalence bounds (e.g., -0.5) expressed in standardized mean difference (Cohen's d)

high_eqbound_d

upper equivalence bounds (e.g., 0.5) expressed in standardized mean difference (Cohen's d)

sdpooled

specify the pooled standard deviation

low_eqbound

lower equivalence bounds (e.g., -0.5) expressed in raw scale units (e.g., scalepoints)

high_eqbound

upper equivalence bounds (e.g., 0.5) expressed in raw scale units (e.g., scalepoints)

delta

hypothesized true value for the difference between the 2 means. Default is zero.

Value

Calculate either achieved power, equivalence bounds, or required N, assuming a true effect size of 0. Returns a string summarizing the power analysis, and a numeric variable for number of observations, equivalence bounds, or power.
