Description

pwr_sigma_1pop computes the power and the sample size for testing variance in a normal variable.

Usage

1
2
pwr_sigma_1pop(sigma, sigma0, n = NULL, pwr = NULL,
alternative = "two.sided", sig_level = 0.05)

Arguments

sigma

populational standard deviation

sigma0

standard deviation under null hypothesis

n

number of observations (sample size)

pwr

power of test 1 + β (1 minus type II error probability)

alternative

a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis, must be one of "two.sided" (default), "greater" or "less"

sig_level

significance level (Type I error probability)

Details

Exactly one of the parameters 'n' and 'pwr' must be passed as NULL, and that parameter is determined from the other. Notice that the last one has non-NULL default so NULL must be explicitly passed if you want to compute it.

This function computes internally the effect size, given the populational standard deviation and the standard deviation under null hypothesis. These parameters are required.

Value

pwr_sigma_1pop returns a list with the following components:

sigma

populational standard deviation

sigma0

standard deviation under null hypothesis

sig_level

significance level

power_sampleSize

A tibble with sample size n and power pwr
