“…Since the advocacy of CIs is a central theme in statistical reform, additional methods and formulas for sample size determination in regard to various unconditional/condition al probabilities are required to address this need in the future to simultaneously obtain power and precision. The current findings add to a growing body of literature on sample size planning, and there is abundant room for further progress in multiple comparisons (simultaneous confidence intervals) (Liu, 2009;Pan & Kupper, 1999), linear contrasts (Bonett, 2009;Jan & Shieh, 2019;Luh & Guo, 2016), stratified sampling (Snedecor & Cochran, 1989), and multilevel analyses (Liu, 2003). Under certain circumstances, one group size may be pre-fixed to a certain number in a study; thus, the present study also supplied App (III) (see Supplementary Materials) to facilitate the recommended pro cedures in planning the required size of the other group so that the desired probability level can still be achieved.…”
