From: Bminer on 26 Feb 2010 18:30 Hi all, Is there any way (SAS or otherwise) to determine the required sample size to test the difference in two means or proportions for a given power, given a finite population? In other words, say we have a sample frame of X people and I want to test a control versus a treatment. Short of 50/50 split, how can I allocate subjects to the treatment or control to reach my required power? Thanks!

Hi Arthur, Unless Im mistaken, there is no fpc in this program
From: Arthur Tabachneck on 27 Feb 2010 09:48 I didn't know that you needed to include a correction factor.

Can you just apply that formula to the n you arrive at with any type of design or test? (such as differences between 2 proportions)? |
