1 Power ad Sample Size: Issues i Study Desig Joh McGready Departmet of Biostatistics, Bloomberg School Lecture Topics Re-visit cocept of statistical power Factors ifluecig power Sample size determiatio whe comparig two meas Sample size determiatio whe comparig two proportios Sectio A Power ad Its Iflueces 1
2 Example Cosider the followig results from a study doe o 9 wome, all years old Sample Data Mea SBP SD of SBP users No Users 4 Example Of particular iterest is whether use is associated with higher blood pressure Statistically speakig we are iterested i testig : H o :µ = µ NO H o : µ -µ NO = 0 H A : µ µ NO H A : µ -µ NO 0 Here µ represets (populatio mea SBP for users, µ NO (populatio mea BP for wome ot usig 5 Example Let s uveil the results of this test from our data: Sample Data Mea SBP SD of SBP users No Users 6
3 Example The sample mea differece i blood pressures is = 5.4 This could be cosidered scietifically sigificat, however, the result is ot statistically sigificat (or eve close to it! at the α =.05 level Suppose, as a researcher, you were cocered about detectig a populatio differece of this magitude if it truly existed This particular study of 9 wome has low power to detect a differece of such magitude 7 Power Recall, from lecture four of SR1: D E C I S I O N Reject H o Not Reject H o H o Type I Error alpha-level TRUTH H A Power 1-beta Type II Error beta 8 Power Power is a measure of doig the right thig whe H A is true! Higher power is better (the closer the power is to 1.0 or 100% We ca calculate power for a give study if we specify a specific H A This /Blood pressure study has power of.13 to detect a differece i blood pressure of 5.4 or more, if this differece truly exists i the populatio of wome years old! Whe power is this low, it is difficult to determie whether there is o statistical differece i populatio meas or we just could ot detect it 9 3
4 Power Recall, the samplig behavior of x1 x is ormally distributed (large samples with this samplig distributed cetered at true mea differece. If H o truth, the curve is cetered at 0 H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 10 Power Recall, the samplig behavior of x1 x is ormally distributed (large samples with this samplig distributed cetered at true mea differece. If H A truth, the curve is cetered at some value d, d 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 11 Power H o will be rejected (for α=.05 if the sample result, x1 x, is more tha stadard errors away from 0, either above or below H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 1 4
5 Power Ho will be rejected (for α=.05 if the sample result, x1 x, is more tha stadard errors away from 0, either above or below H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 13 What Iflueces Power? I order to INCREASE power for a study comparig two group meas, we eed to do the followig: 1. Chage the estimates of µ 1 ad µ so that the differece betwee the two ( µ 1 -µ is bigger H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 14 What Iflueces Power? I order to INCREASE power for a study comparig two group meas, we eed to do the followig: 1. Chage the estimates of µ 1 ad µ so that the differece betwee the two ( µ 1 -µ is bigger H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 15 5
6 What Iflueces Power? I order to INCREASE power for a study comparig two group meas, we eed to do the followig:. Icrease the sample size i each group H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 16 What Iflueces Power? I order to INCREASE power for a study comparig two group meas, we eed to do the followig:. Icrease the sample size i each group H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 17 What Iflueces Power? I order to INCREASE power for a study comparig two group meas, we eed to do the followig: 3. Icrease the α-level of the hypothesis test (fuctioally speakig, make it easier to reject here, with α=.05: H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 18 6
7 What Iflueces Power? I order to INCREASE power for a study comparig two group meas, we eed to do the followig: 3. Icrease the α-level of the hypothesis test (fuctioally speakig, make it easier to reject here, with α=.10: H o : μ 1 -μ = 0 H A : μ 1 -μ = d 19 Power ad Studies Power ca be computed after a study is completed Ca oly be computed for specific H A s: i.e. this study had XX% to detect a differece i populatio meas of YY or greater. Sometimes preseted as a excuse for o statistically sigificat fidig: the lack of a statically sigificat associatio betwee A ad B could be because of low power (< 15% to detect a mea differece of YY or greater betwee.. Ca also be preseted to corroborate with a o statistically sigificat result May times, i study desig, a required sample size is computed to actually achieve a certai preset power level to fid a Cliically/scietifically miimal importat differece i meas I ext sectio we will show how to do this usig Stata Idustry stadard for power: 80% (or greater 0 Sectio B Sample Size Calculatios whe Comparig Group Meas 7
8 Example Blood pressure ad oral cotraceptives Suppose we used data from the example i Sectio A to motivate the followig questio: Is oral cotraceptive use associated with higher blood pressure amog idividuals betwee the ages of 35 39? Pilot Study Recall, the data: Sample Data Mea SBP SD of SBP users No Users 3 Pilot Study We thik this research has a potetially iterestig associatio We wat to do a bigger study We wat this larger study to have ample power to detect this associatio, should it really exist i the populatio What we wat to do is determie sample sizes eeded to detect about a 5mm icrease i blood pressure i O.C. users with 80% power at sigificace level α =.05 Usig pilot data, we estimate that the stadard deviatios are 15.3 ad 18. i O.C. ad o-o.c. users respectively 4 8

19 Sectio D Sample Size ad Study Desig Priciples: A Brief Summary Desigig Your Ow Study Whe desigig a study, there is a tradeoff betwee : Power α-level Sample size Miimum detectable differece (specific Ha Idustry stadard 80% power, α = Desigig Your Ow Study What if sample size calculatio yields group sizes that are too big (i.e., ca ot afford to do study or are very difficult to recruit subjects for study? Icrease miimum differece of iterest Icrease α-level Decrease desired power 57 19
20 Desigig Your Ow Study Sample size calculatios are a importat part of study proposal Study fuders wat to kow that the researcher ca detect a relatioship with a high degree of certaity (should it really exist Eve if you aticipate cofoudig factors, these approaches are the best you ca do ad are relatively easy Accoutig for cofouders requires more iformatio ad sample size has to be doe via computer simulatio cosult a statisticia! 58 Desigig Your Ow Study Whe would you calculate the power of a study? Secodary data aalysis Data has already bee collected, sample size is fixed Pilot Study to illustrate that low power may be a cotributig factor to o-sigificat results ad that a larger study may be appropriate 59 Desigig Your Ow Study What is this specific alterative hypothesis? Power or sample size ca oly be calculated for a specific alterative hypothesis Whe comparig two groups this meas estimatig the true populatio meas (proportios for each group 60 0
21 Desigig Your Ow Study What is this specific alterative hypothesis? Therefore specifyig a differece betwee the two groups This differece is frequetly called miimum detectable differece or effect size, referrig to the miimum detectable differece with scietific iterest 61 Desigig Your Ow Study Where does this specific alterative hypothesis come from? Hopefully, ot the statisticia! As this is geerally a quatity of scietific iterest, it is best estimated by a kowledgeable researcher or pilot study data This is perhaps the most difficult compoet of sample size calculatios, as there is o magic rule or idustry stadard 6 FYI Usig Stata to Compute Power I promised you i part A of this lecture that I would evetually show you how to compute the power to detect differece i a study that has already bee coducted The sampsi commad is still the commad for this we just eed to feed it slightly differet iformatio for it to compute power 63 1
22 Calculatig Power I order to calculate power for a study comparig two populatio meas, we eed the followig: Sample size for each group Estimated (populatio meas, μ 1 ad μ for each group these values frame a specific alterative hypothesis (usually miimum differece of scietific iterest Estimated (populatio SD s, σ 1 ad σ α-level α of the hypothesis test 64 Calculatig Power The Blood Pressure/Oral Cotraceptive Example Sample Data Mea SBP SD of SBP users No Users 65 Calculatig Power Fill i iformatio below with results from this study Sample size for each group ( = 8, NO = 1 Estimated (populatio meas, µ = 13.8 ad µ NO = 17.4 Estimated (populatio sd s, σ = 15.3 ad σ NO = 18. for each group α-level of the hypothesis test (.05 66
