Model Sample-Size Plans

The video above walks through model sample size plans when planning for power and for precision.

If this workshop helps inform your own sample-size plan, please share it with our community! Submit your sample size plans to the GitHub discussion page for this course, here: https://github.com/rcalinjageman/How-Much-Data/discussions. When you do, please indicated if you are willing for your sample-size plan to be linked/featured/discussed from this page as well.

While working on your sample-size plan,it can also be helpful to reflect on what not to do. You may find this commentary on sample-size reporting in Nature Neuroscience useful (Goodhill 2017). Sadly, Nature Neuroscience did not seem to feel it was worth alerting its readers to these issues.
