Hi kumar

❝ Can we give same justification for Parallel design. :confused:


Quite simply: No.
The parallel design has different design characteristics (degrees of freedom, design constant ...). Thus an analogous formula for that design must have a different numeric factor.
Figure out it by yourself if you feel the need (using the "large sample" formulas given in Julious). This should be not such hard for you as Statistician :-D.

Just to cite myself: "In the current modern times there is no need for such formulas and they shouldn't be used any longer."

Regards,
