Statistical Power Analysis explains the key concepts in statistical
power analysis and illustrates their application in both tests of
traditional null hypotheses (that treatments or interventions have
no effect in the population) and in tests of the minimum-effect
hypotheses (that the population effects of treatments or
interventions are so small that they can be safely treated as
unimportant). It provides readers with the tools to understand and
perform power analyses for virtually all the statistical methods
used in the social and behavioral sciences. Brett Myors and Kevin
Murphy apply the latest approaches of power analysis to both null
hypothesis and minimum-effect testing using the same basic unified
model. This book starts with a review of the key concepts that
underly statistical power. It goes on to show how to perform and
interpret power analyses, and the ways to use them to diagnose and
plan research. We discuss the uses of power analysis in correlation
and regression, in the analysis of experimental data, and in
multilevel studies. This edition includes new material and new
power software. The programs used for power analysis in this book
have been re-written in R, a language that is widely used and
freely available. The authors include R codes for all programs, and
we have also provided a web-based app that allows users who are not
comfortable with R to perform a wide range of analyses using any
computer or device that provides access to the web. Statistical
Power Analysis helps readers design studies, diagnose existing
studies, and understand why hypothesis tests come out the way they
do. The fifth edition includes updates to all chapters to
accommodate the most current scholarship, as well as recalculations
of all examples. This book is intended for graduate students and
faculty in the behavioral and social sciences; researchers in other
fields will find the concepts and methods laid out here valuable
and applicable to studies in many domains.
