A method of power assessment for tests comparing several treatments with a control
A method of power assessment for the problem of comparing several treatments with a control is considered. Power assessment is based on the power function of a two-sided hypothesis test that none of the treatment is different from the control. Normally distributed data and binary response data are considered. Minimum power levels are found under certain easily interpretable range conditions on the treatment and control means or success probabilities. Expressions are provided allowing simple computer evaluation of minimum guaranteed power levels, and some illustrative tables of power levels are given.

Abstract

A method of power assessment for the problem of comparing several treatments with a control is considered. Power assessment is based on the power function of a two-sided hypothesis test that none of the treatment is different from the control. Normally distributed data and binary response data are considered. Minimum power levels are found under certain easily interpretable range conditions on the treatment and control means or success probabilities. Expressions are provided allowing simple computer evaluation of minimum guaranteed power levels, and some illustrative tables of power levels are given.
