Register90% CI [General Statistics]
Hello Rana,
Generally in statistics an alpha of 5% is considered appropriate. Whether this alpha level is appopriate or not is of course also a good question, but it has stuck for years and seems to be the tradition now. When that alpha is applied in the equivalence world it implies a 90% CI (1-2*alpha, two-sided).
❝ Why only 90% Confidence Interval is being used in generally to prove bioequivalence..why can't 80% or 70% ??? What is rationale behind this?
