Help : Integrating an F-Distribution

2000-03-17 Thread Scott Nivens
I am trying to incorporate an integration routine to calculate the area under an F-Distribution given a score and the numerator and denominator DOFs. I've made similar routines for the normal and T distributions. The F-distribution is giving me some problems, especially when my DOFs are small. I g

RE: Power for Pilot Studies

2000-03-17 Thread Magill, Brett
Seems to me that the notion of power in a pilot study is moot. Typically, a pilot study is a test of the research methodology and instruments. As such, your sample size is a pragmatic decision and should consist of enough observations to test your design and research instruments. For instance, i

I do believe that to the extent there is a "conventional" alpha level, that level is .05. In the behavioral sciences, this convention is adhered to rather strictly, especially by journal editors and review panels! On Wed, 15 Mar 2000, Andy Avins wrote: > We proposed a pilot clinical trial that

Lorenzo, your problem is not clear to me. Are you trying to deal with the analysis of the actual sampling that you describe, to find out for those particular 100 instances what the most frequent five numbers happen to be? Or are you trying to compute the relative frequencies of particular

My problem is a frequency count similar to this: One hundred times (cases) I take five different balls from a container with one hundred balls. Every ball is numbered from 1 to 100. After one hundred extractions I want to compute exactly the twenty balls more frequents. I don't want to compute
