Giving less power to statistical power. [PDF]
Lab AnimResearchers often need to justify their choice of sample size, particularly in fields such as animal and clinical research, where there are obvious ethical concerns about relying on too many or too few study subjects. The common approach is still to depend on statistical power calculations, typically carried out using simple ...

Statistical power: An historical introduction [PDF]
Tutorials in Quantitative Methods for Psychology, 2007 Despite the funding agencies growing demands towards power analyses, we believe researchers are still not fully aware of the statistical power concept, of the possible benefits of power analysis in the planning phase and of the ways to increase the ...

Developmental Dyslexia, Reading Acquisition, and Statistical Learning: A Sceptic’s Guide
Brain Sciences, 2021 Many theories have been put forward that propose that developmental dyslexia is caused by low-level neural, cognitive, or perceptual deficits. For example, statistical learning is a cognitive mechanism that allows the learner to detect a probabilistic ...

Impact of Misdiagnosis in Case-Control Studies of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Diagnostics, 2023 Misdiagnosis of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) can occur when different case definitions are used by clinicians (relative misdiagnosis) or when failing the genuine diagnosis of another disease (misdiagnosis in a strict sense).

On the Power of Statistical Zero Knowledge [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Computing, 2017 We examine the power of statistical zero knowledge proofs (captured by the complexity class $\mathsf{SZK}$) and their variants. First, we give the strongest known relativized evidence that $\mathsf{SZK}$ contains hard problems, by exhibiting an oracle relative to which $\mathsf{SZK}$ (indeed, even $\mathsf{NISZK}$) is not contained in the class ...
