Comparison of the power of statistical tests in connection with the discussion about the reproducibility criterion by V. E. Osipov

“…Taking into account the conventional power value equal to 80%, the first criterion is unsuitable for use in the considered values of the parameters of primary studies (that is, if a two-tailed t-test with the significance level of 0.05 and with two samples of the typical length n=25 is used to determine the significance of the effect size in individual studies), while the power of the second test can be increased if necessary by increasing the number of primary studies included in the meta-analysis.Conclusion. If the criterion of reproducibility, known from the philosophy of science, is intended to confirm the existence of the effect (connection) or, in other words, to reveal the effect, in conditions where there is a significant random component in the measurement process, it is advisable to apply not the first, but the second test.…”
