Does unequal alpha distribution make sense? [Two-Stage / GS Designs]
Hi Dr_Dan,
It is generally a 1-2*alpha confidence interval so in this case the coverage is 91.74%.
So far no method has been published where the observed GMR can be used and where power is not suffering and/or sample size going through the roof. And equally troubling noone has published the proof that using the observed GMR doesn't work. I know at least three different groups of researchers (or two groups and one individual) have been looking at it. I think it is a matter of journals not wishing to publish negative results. Lack of these publications have already caused a few projects to fail as far as I know.
❝ Stage I: 0.001 leading to 99.8% CI
❝ Stage II: 0.0413 leading to 9?.?% CI ???
It is generally a 1-2*alpha confidence interval so in this case the coverage is 91.74%.
❝ For the sample size calculation for the second stage you use the GMR 0.95 or the GMR as calculated from stage I results?
