Type | Independent variable | Dependent variable |
---|---|---|
1. A priori | Power (1-β), significance level (α), and effect size | N |
2. Compromise | Effect size, N, q=β/α | Power (1-β), significance level (α) |
3. Criterion | Power (1-β), effect size, N | Significance level (α), criterion |
4. Post-hoc | Significance level (α), effect size, N | Power (1-β) |
5. Sensitivity | Significance level (α), power (1-β), N | Effect size |
N, sample size; q=β/α, error probability ratio, which indicates the relative proportionality or disproportionality of the 2 values.
