许多研究人员使用配对t检验来评估匹配数据点之间的平均差异。不幸的是,在许多情况下,这种测试是低效的。本文综述了如何通过使用协方差分析(ANCOVA)研究人员所熟悉的以均值为中心的自变量x来提高该检验的精度。我们通过演示如何将这些效率方面的收益作为发现测试的统计能力的一个因素来添加到文献中。该因素的关键参数是两个度量之间的相关性以及依赖度量对预测器的方差比。然后,本文演示了如何计算先验的效率增益,以修正传统配对t检验的功率计算。我们包括最近干预的一个例子分析,家庭准备新一代(familas Preparando la Nueva Generación)。最后,通过对现有数据的分析得出合理的参数值。
Many researchers employ the paired t-test to evaluate the mean difference between matched data points. Unfortunately, in many cases this test in inefficient. This paper reviews how to increase the precision of this test through using the mean centered independent variable x, which is familiar to researchers that use analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). We add to the literature by demonstrating how to employ these gains in efficiency as a factor for use in finding the statistical power of the test. The key parameters for this factor are the correlation between the two measures and the variance ratio of the dependent measure on the predictor. The paper then demonstrates how to compute the gains in efficiency a priori to amend the power computations for the traditional paired t -test. We include an example analysis from a recent intervention, Families Preparing the New Generation (Familias Preparando la Nueva Generación). Finally, we conclude with an analysis of extant data to derive reasonable parameter values.
