Introduction to Power Analysis Workshop

This workshop introduces the basic principles of power analysis and sample size calculation for both animal and human research. We will review the general framework of statistical hypothesis testing, cover different factors affecting power like study design, outcome measures, statistical tests, and effect sizes, and then discuss the increasingly important issue of multiple comparisons and the implications for power analysis. You will learn how to use a free software package to perform power analysis and sample size calculation in simple situations. You will also learn the typical information needed by the Biostatistics and Study Design Service to perform these tasks for you.
