Minimum effect sizes.
Key workers per huba,b | Intraclass correlationc | Minimum detectable effect size |
6 | 0.25 | 0.68 |
6 | 0.5 | 0.56 |
8 | 0.25 | 0.59 |
8 | 0.5 | 0.49 |
aEffect size is the expected difference between the 2 conditions (intervention-control) divided by the SD (ie, the square root of the total variance).
bDetectable with 80% power for the proposed stepped-wedge design with 6 hubs, 3 periods, and 4 assessment time points.
cIntraclass correlation: between individual variance divided by the sum of the between and within individual variances.
