13 Determining the Sample Size - Department of Statistics
www.stat.columbia.eduA helpful tutorial on sample size issues is the paper by Steven Julious in Statistics in Medicine (Julious, 2004); a classic text is that of Desu and Raghavarao (1990). Nowadays, the use of specialist software for sample size determination such as NQuery, PASS or Power and Precision is common. We now consider the issues. 13.2 ISSUES
