| Content | Der Workshop wird von Prof. Daniël Lakens (Eindhoven University) angeboten. When designing an experiment it is essential to think about the sample size you need to collect. However, due to uncertainty in the effect size you will observe, it is often difficult to perform an a-priori power analysis. It would often be much more convenient to collect data in small batches and repeatedly analyze the data, were it not for the fact that this is known as a ‘p-hacking’, and inflates the Type 1 error rate. In this workshop we will discuss statistical techniques to sequentially analyze data in small batches, or even after every participant, without inflating error rates. Such approaches are efficient and flexible ways to collect data when the expected effect size is uncertain. We will focus on sequential analyses technique developed in biostatistics, but also discuss novel developments such as ‘safe tests’ and Bayesian sequential analyses. This workshop has a pragmatic, hand-on approach, and we will discuss how to incorporate feasibility constraints, stopping either after concluding the presence or the absence of a meaningful effect, and free software tools that exists to design and analyze sequential trials. |
