Small Sample Size Solutions

Abstract: Researchers often have difficulties collecting enough data to test their hypotheses, either because target groups are small or hard to access, or because data collection entails prohibitive costs. Such obstacles may result in data sets that are too small for the complexity of the statistical model needed to answer the research question. This unique book provides guidelines and tools for implementing solutions to issues that arise in small sample research. Each chapter illustrates statistical methods that allow… Show more

“…However, it may be argued that if there is sufficient evidence in support of a specific intervention to be tested in elite athletes, this “range of expectable values” may also merit to be considered as part of a new state of knowledge after data have been collected. In other words, Bayesian analysis with informative priors is particularly appropriate if the analytical aim is on decision making rather than on generalizable inference (Senn, 2011 ), available data on the level of interest is scarce (Sottas et al, 2007 ; Van de Schoot, 2020 ), and supposedly applicable prior knowledge is available (Aitken and Taroni, 2004 ; Hecksteden et al, 2017 ). As already pointed out in the introduction, this situation regularly occurs in elite sports.…”

“…Prior distributional parameters for the efficacy of whole-body CWI (β CWI ) are based on the metaanalysis published by Poppendieck et al ( 2013 ) the rationale being to characterise the range of plausible values pre-trial (Wagenmakers et al, 2016 ; Hecksteden et al, 2017 ; Van de Schoot, 2020 ). A detailed account is provided as a Supplementary File .…”
