Lars can probably simulate some scenarios with -sampsi-. I find this
approach particularly useful when the limited number of participants
available is due to budget constraints (as it is often the case, sadly).
Kindest Regards,
Carlo

Oggetto: st: Minimal Detectable Difference
Dear List
This might be a bit more of a stats question than a stata question.
I am about to do a cross sectional study comparing two groups regarding a
measured continous variable.
I know the the variance of the measurement. No one has ever investigated
these groups before using this or similar machines. For practical reasons i
only have a limited number of participants available for this project. I am
now wondering what the minimal detectable difference between the two groups
are with the number of participants i have available.
I will use a t-test (paired, seeing the two groups are matched)
How do i calculate this using stata?
