Dear Helmut,

seems there is an error / copy and paste mistake in your SEdiff of the full set, log-transformed.
My beasty number cruncher [image] (Proc MIXED) gives:

                              Least Squares Means

Effect       Formulation  Estimate     Error    DF  t Value  Pr > |t|   

 Formulation  Referenc       4.3797   0.05626    22    77.85    <.0001
 Formulation  Test           4.3511   0.05626    22    77.34    <.0001

                       Differences of Least Squares Means

                                                     Standard
  Effect       Formulation  _Formulation  Estimate      Error     DF   t Value

  Formulation  Referenc     Test           0.02865    0.05569     22      0.51


So repeating the power calculations for the Full set, log-transformed :
b  = ln(0.8)/SEdiff = -4.006887 (yicaotings formula)
df = 22
tcrit = qt(0.95,22) = 1.717144...
power = 1 - 1 + 0.9872805 = 0.9872805

Seems reasonable in accordance to WNL I think.

So mystery resolved. Thanx to yicaoting :clap:.

Regards,

Detlew

The difference between a surrogate and a true endpoint
is like the difference between a cheque and cash.
You can get the cheque earlier but then,
of course, it might bounce.    Stephen Senn
