Sample-Size Formulae for Parameter Estimation Journal Articles

abstract

• Formulae are presented for calculating sample-size requirements when the purpose of the study is to estimate the magnitude of a parameter rather than to test an hypothesis. Formulae are given for the mean, a proportion, and correlation, for the slope, intercept, value of Ȳ, and Y for a given value of X in multiple regression, and for the odds and risk ratios.
