Description
Simulation-Based Power Estimation (MSPE) for Nonlinear SEM.
Description
Model-implied simulation-based power estimation (MSPE) for nonlinear (and linear) SEM, path analysis and regression analysis. A theoretical framework is used to approximate the relation between power and sample size for given type I error rates and effect sizes. The package offers an adaptive search algorithm to find the optimal N for given effect sizes and type I error rates. Plots can be used to visualize the power relation to N for different parameters of interest (POI). Theoretical justifications are given in Irmer et al. (2024a) <doi:10.31219/osf.io/pe5bj> and detailed description are given in Irmer et al. (2024b) <doi:10.3758/s13428-024-02476-3>.
