samplingAD.Rd
Estimates the set of feasible combinations of individuals and observations per individual needed to obtain a statistical power given an effect size, alpha level and metric of interest. Based on Pirla, Taquet and Quoidbach (2021).
samplingAD(power = 0.8, metric, r, p.value = 0.05)
Minimum required power. Input as a number from 0.01 to 0.99. Defaults to 0.8 (80% power).
Metric of interest. Must be a single character from "Average", "Rel.SD", "SD", "RMSSD", "TKEO", "PAC" or "Autocorrelation".
Number from 0.01 to 0.99 indicating the expected effect size (Pearson correlation) of interest.
Alpha level. Must be one of the following numbers: 0.01, 0.05, 0.001, 0.005, 0.001. Defaults to 0.05.

#> Number of individuals and affect reports per individual (samples) needed to achieve a power of 80 % or more to detect a Pearson correlation of size r = 0.1 between the Standard Deviation (SD) in affect. and a given variable using a two-tailed t-test and an alpha of 0.01 .

#> Power is estimated through a linear interpolation using the sample combinations included in our main analyses.We refrain from making power extrapolations and therefore, only consider sampling approaches that range between 10 and 5120 participants and from 5 to 50 affect reports per participant (samples). The following table presents the minimal sampling combinations included in our main analyses that yielded the specified power:
#>
#> Power Individuals Samples
#> 1.00 5120 5
#> 0.96 2560 10
#> 0.80 1280 25

#> How to report:
#>
#> Power analysis for affect dynamic studies (Pirla et al., 2021) suggests that our sampling strategy achieved a statistical power of 80 % to detect a Pearson correlation of size r = 0.1 using a two-tailed t-test with an alpha of 0.01 .
