Using simulation for power analysis

Pearson correlation

set.seed(0)

simulate_p_value <- function(sample_size) {
  # Simulate data
  x <- rnorm(sample_size)
  y <- x + rnorm(sample_size)
  
  # Calculate correlation and p-value
  cor.test(x, y)$p.value
}

simulate_p_value_ttest <- function(sample_size) {
  # Simulate data
  x <- rnorm(sample_size, mean = 0)
  y <- rnorm(sample_size, mean = 0.5)
  
  # Calculate p-value
  t.test(x, y)$p.value
}

sample_sizes <- c(10, 30, 50, 100, 300, 500, 1000)
p_values <- sapply(sample_sizes, simulate_p_value)

plot(sample_sizes, p_values, log = "y", type = "o",
     xlab = "Sample Size", ylab = "p-value",
     main = "Effect of Sample Size on p-value")

T-test case

T-test variance could be large if the sample size is small. Below is a case of 30 vs 5 and effect size .5. 

set.seed(13)
hist(replicate(100, t.test(rnorm(30), rnorm(5)+.5)$p.value), 
     main='', xlab='pvalue')
set.seed(13); summary(replicate(100, t.test(rnorm(30), rnorm(5)+.5)$p.value))
#      Min.   1st Qu.    Median      Mean   3rd Qu.      Max. 
# 0.0000157 0.1730494 0.3178627 0.3970372 0.6592276 0.9999164

Power calculation for proportions (shiny app)

https://juliasilge.shinyapps.io/power-app/

Derive the formula/manual calculation

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} Power & = P_{\mu_1-\mu_2 = \Delta}(\frac{\bar{X}_1 - \bar{X}_2}{\sqrt{\sigma^2/n + \sigma^2/n}} \gt Z_{\alpha /2}) + P_{\mu_1-\mu_2 = \Delta}(\frac{\bar{X}_1 - \bar{X}_2}{\sqrt{\sigma^2/n + \sigma^2/n}} \lt -Z_{\alpha /2}) \\ & \approx P_{\mu_1-\mu_2 = \Delta}(\frac{\bar{X}_1 - \bar{X}_2}{\sqrt{\sigma^2/n + \sigma^2/n}} \gt Z_{\alpha /2}) \\ & = P_{\mu_1-\mu_2 = \Delta}(\frac{\bar{X}_1 - \bar{X}_2 - \Delta}{\sqrt{2 * \sigma^2/n}} \gt Z_{\alpha /2} - \frac{\Delta}{\sqrt{2 * \sigma^2/n}}) \\ & = \Phi(-(Z_{\alpha /2} - \frac{\Delta}{\sqrt{2 * \sigma^2/n}})) \\ & = 1 - \beta =\Phi(Z_\beta) \end{align} }[/math]

Therefore

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} Z_{\beta} &= - Z_{\alpha/2} + \frac{\Delta}{\sqrt{2 * \sigma^2/n}} \\ Z_{\beta} + Z_{\alpha/2} & = \frac{\Delta}{\sqrt{2 * \sigma^2/n}} \\ 2 * (Z_{\beta} + Z_{\alpha/2})^2 * \sigma^2/\Delta^2 & = n \\ n & = 2 * (Z_{\beta} + Z_{\alpha/2})^2 * \sigma^2/\Delta^2 \end{align} }[/math]
# alpha = .05, delta = 200, n = 79.5, sigma=450
1 - pnorm(1.96 - 200*sqrt(79.5)/(sqrt(2)*450)) + pnorm(-1.96 - 200*sqrt(79.5)/(sqrt(2)*450))
# [1] 0.8
pnorm(-1.96 - 200*sqrt(79.5)/(sqrt(2)*450))
# [1] 9.58e-07
1 - pnorm(1.96 - 200*sqrt(79.5)/(sqrt(2)*450)) 
# [1] 0.8

Calculating required sample size in R and SAS

pwr package is used. For two-sided test, the formula for sample size is

[math]\displaystyle{ n_{\mbox{each group}} = \frac{2 * (Z_{\alpha/2} + Z_\beta)^2 * \sigma^2}{\Delta^2} = \frac{2 * (Z_{\alpha/2} + Z_\beta)^2}{d^2} }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ Z_\alpha }[/math] is value of the Normal distribution which cuts off an upper tail probability of [math]\displaystyle{ \alpha }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta }[/math] is the difference sought, [math]\displaystyle{ \sigma }[/math] is the presumed standard deviation of the outcome, [math]\displaystyle{ \alpha }[/math] is the type 1 error, [math]\displaystyle{ \beta }[/math] is the type II error and (Cohen's) d is the effect size - difference between the means divided by the pooled standard deviation. 

# An example from http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/stuff_for_blog/c13.pdf#page=3
# Method 1.
require(pwr)
pwr.t.test(d=200/450, power=.8, sig.level=.05,
           type="two.sample", alternative="two.sided")
#
#     Two-sample t test power calculation 
#
#              n = 80.4
#              d = 0.444
#      sig.level = 0.05
#          power = 0.8
#    alternative = two.sided
#
# NOTE: n is number in *each* group

# Method 2.
2*(qnorm(.975) + qnorm(.8))^2*450^2/(200^2)
# [1] 79.5
2*(1.96 + .84)^2*450^2 / (200^2)
# [1] 79.4

And stats::power.t.test() function. 

power.t.test(n = 79.5, delta = 200, sd = 450, sig.level = .05,
             type ="two.sample", alternative = "two.sided")
#
#     Two-sample t test power calculation 
#
#              n = 79.5
#          delta = 200
#             sd = 450
#      sig.level = 0.05
#          power = 0.795
#    alternative = two.sided
