Figure 3.
Sample size ratio (SSR = Nθ/Nθ=0) comparing the required sample size of a study with CS response covariance (i.e. θ = 0) to a study with DEX response covariance (i.e. θ > 0) when the cumulative exposure effect model (4), CS exposure covariance, constant exposure prevalence and r = 5 are assumed, for several values of ρ and ρe. Lines indicate: (—) ρ = 0.2, (- - -) ρ = 0.5, (…) ρ = 0.8.
