Dear statalisters,
Does anyone know why the absolute precision d (0.05) is different when
estimating sample size (350) or using the "sample size for d" option of
sskdlg (d=0.036 wit a preset sample size of 350) ? see below
I'd appreciate any help with this.
Sincerely,
J Labarere
--- Begin -----------------------------------------------
Results for kappa=.90, p1=0.70, p2=0.70,
d=0.05 [95% Conf. Interval]:
* Sample size = 350
If the sample size is fixed at 350,
given the kappa, p1, p2 and CI stated
above, d = .036.
