Hi All, What is/are formula/as used by sampleN.TOST to calculate sample size of different study designs? ![]() I am interested in "exact" method. ![]() |

Hi BE-proff, ❝ What is/are formula/as used by sampleN.TOST to calculate sample size of different study designs? ❝ I am interested in "exact" method. See this post and the references. Since numeric integration is involved, it is not that easy. — Dif-tor heh smusma 🖖🏼 Довге життя Україна! ![]() Helmut Schütz ![]() The quality of responses received is directly proportional to the quality of the question asked. 🚮 Science Quotes |

Dear BE-proff, ❝ What is/are formula/as used by sampleN.TOST to calculate sample size of different study designs? ❝ I am interested in "exact" method. additional to Helmut's suggestion I would point you to the \doc sub-directory of the package PowerTOST. It contains a PDF file BE_power_sample_size_excerpt.pdf which deals in a short cursory manner with power / sample size estimation of the TOST procedure.As you will see there is no distinct (simple) formula for sample size estimation. Only the power (given CV and n and additionally some design characteristic) can be calculated. The sample size is then iteratively obtained by varying n until the desired power is achieved. Hope this helps. — Regards, Detlew |
