Lecture #12

1. in a fixed-effects two-way ANOVA design

There are three types of omega squared in a two-way factorial design: one due to Factor A, another due to Factor B, and the third due to the interaction of A and B:

Partial Or,

 

Partial Or,

 

Partial Or,

 

2. Effect size in a factorial design

Effect size for Factor A=, where the omega square index is in its partial form.

Likewise, we may define the effect size for Factor B or A*B interaction as

=

=

 

3. Power of an F-test

To determine power and desirable sample size, we need to compute a third parameter for the noncentral F distribution which is the distribution under the alternative hypothesis:

=

Take this value, the df for Factor A, df for MS error, and alpha (say, .05) to Tang's Chart (in Table E.12 starting on page 816) in order to determine power.

Turn to p. 400 Kirk (1994) for an estimation of the f parameter for Factor B and A*B interaction:

 

4. Sample size determination for testing the main effect of A 

Method 1 Trial and Error--Given a desirable , you may try different values of n in the eq. above.

Method 2 Enter into Table E13 on p. 826 and return with a n=53 for the power of .8

 

Method 3 Return to Tang's chart ...

Reverse the process outlined in (2) above, you will be able to determine a desirable sample size needed in planning for the next (or future) study.

Step 1: Preset the power to be .82 (say).

Step 2: Preset the alpha to be .05 (say).

Step 3: Preset the DF for the error term to infinity.

Step 4: Derive a value based on preset power (.82), alpha (.05), and DF for the error term.

Step 5: Plug the value into the formula listed in (4) above and determine n per cell.

Step 6: Use the n derived from Step 5 to redetermine the DF for the error term.

Step 7: Repeat Steps 4-6 until n converges.

 

5. Assignments:

(1) Review Sections 9.8, and 5.6 in Kirk.

(2) Do questions 5(c), 5(d), 5(e), 6(c), 6(d), 6(f), 7(c), 7(d), and 7(e) in Chapter 9 of Kirk.

(3) Preview Sections 5.8, 9.4, and 9.10 in Kirk.
