Calculate the optimal sample size allocation that produces the highest statistical power for experimental studies under a budget constraint, and perform power analyses with and without accommodating cost structures of sampling. The designs cover single-level and multilevel experiments detecting main, mediation, and moderation effects (and some combinations).
