pwr.anova.test {pwr}R Documentation

Power calculations for balanced one-way analysis of variance tests

Description

Compute power of test or determine parameters to obtain target power (same as power.anova.test).

Usage

pwr.anova.test(k = NULL, n = NULL, f = NULL, sig.level = 0.05, power = NULL)

Arguments

k Number of groups
n Number of observations (per group)
f Effect size
sig.level Significance level (Type I error probability)
power Power of test (1 minus Type II error probability)

Details

Exactly one of the parameters 'k','n','h','power' and 'sig.level' must be passed as NULL, and that parameter is determined from the others. Notice that the last one has non-NULL default so NULL must be explicitly passed if you want to compute it.

Value

Object of class '"power.htest"', a list of the arguments (including the computed one) augmented with 'method' and 'note' elements.

Note

'uniroot' is used to solve power equation for unknowns, so you may see errors from it, notably about inability to bracket the root when invalid arguments are given.
