Sample Size Determination in Survey Research

Sample size determination for logistic regression

The problem of sample size estimation is important in medical applications, especially in cases of expensive measurements of immune biomarkers. This paper describes the problem of logistic regression analysis with the sample size determination algorithms, namely the methods of univariate statistics, logistics regression, cross-validation and Bayesian inference. The authors, treating the regr...

This is a review paper which gives a discussion of various aspects of designing consideration in medical research. This paper covers the essentials in calculating power and sample size for a variety of applied study designs. Sample size computation for survey type of studies, observation st...

Sample size determination. Influencing factors and calculation strategies for survey research.

The paper reviews both the influencing factors and calculation strategies of sample size determination for survey research. It indicate the factors that affect the sample size determination procedure and explains how. It also provides calculation methods (including formulas) that can be applied directly and easily to estimate the sample size needed in most popular situations.

Sample size determination.

Scientists who use animals in research must justify the number of animals to be used, and committees that review proposals to use animals in research must review this justification to ensure the appropriateness of the number of animals to be used. This article discusses when the number of animals to be used can best be estimated from previous experience and when a simple power and sample size c...
