Determining Power and Sample Size Using SAS/STAT Software

This course teaches you how to use the POWER and GLMPOWER procedures to compute prospective power and sample size calculations.

Learn how to

• estimate the parameters for a power analysis
• conduct a sensitivity analysis of the parameters
• perform power analyses on a two-sample t-test, a multiple regression model, a one-way ANOVA model, a two-way ANOVA model with covariates, multiple logistic regression model, and the comparison of two survival curves.

Who should attend

Those who are involved in planning research studies and designing experiments
