ttest.paired: Power calculation for paired t test

In powertools: Power and Sample Size Tools

Power calculation for paired t test

Description

Performs power and sample size calculations for a paired t test. Can solve for power, N, delta or alpha.

Usage

ttest.paired(
  N = NULL,
  delta = NULL,
  sd1 = 1,
  sd2 = 1,
  rho = NULL,
  alpha = 0.05,
  power = NULL,
  sides = 2,
  v = FALSE
)

Arguments

N	The sample size; if the observations are paired differences, this is the number of pairs.
delta	DeltaA (the true mean difference) - Delta0 (the mean difference under the null).
sd1	The pre standard deviation; defaults to 1.
sd2	The post standard deviation; defaults to 1.
rho	The correlation between pre and post measurements on the same individual.
alpha	The significance level (type 1 error rate); defaults to 0.05.
power	The specified level of power.
sides	Either 1 or 2 (default) to specify a one- or two- sided hypothesis test.
v	Either TRUE for verbose output or FALSE (default) to output computed argument only.

Value

A list of the arguments (including the computed one).

Examples

ttest.paired(N = NULL, delta = 4, sd1 = 10, sd2 = 10, rho = 0.4, power = 0.8, sides = 2)
