Third, low
statistical power and confounding effects combine to generate sizeable upward bias in detected price impacts and damages (i.e., overstating the magnitude of a price impact and damages).
In comparison, when [rho] [not equal to] 1, longitudinal studies always provide more
statistical power than their cross-sectional counterparts.
Empirical
statistical powers were estimated by testing genotypic difference from the unbalanced data simulated with 2 to 5 loci by the Bayesian method by Gibbs sampling.
Low
statistical power contributes to an increased likelihood of making a Type II error (Onwuegbuzie, 2004), thereby causing important findings to be either misreported or not even published.
To increase the
statistical power, if required, more sample size can be used or the level of error a can be increased (Foster, 2001).
Previous studies on the possible association between benzene exposure and lymphoma have been complicated by problems with exposure misclassification, outcome classification, and low
statistical power. Vlaanderen et al.
"What makes our results so unique is that we had a very large sample size, and since we combined data across many studies, we had more
statistical power to detect associations between cancer and coffee."
Via the extension, Algeta emphasized that the
statistical power of the trial will be increased to 90%, thereby further raising the likelihood of proving the efficacy of the candidate drug.
Finally, power values were low for both confidence intervals and more studies are needed to improve
statistical power.
This study summarizes and analyzes average
statistical power and effect sizes in empirical entrepreneurship research.
As it happens, the effect size of interest is a mandatory variable in any a priori calculation of
statistical power, along with the expected sample standard deviation (2-4).
