Definition

Power Analysis estimates the sample size needed to detect a meaningful effect with a desired probability of success.

Core Principles

  • Specify minimum detectable effect
  • Choose desired power level before launch
  • Use realistic baseline rates and variance estimates
  • Recompute when the experiment design changes
