Using this approach, more powerful tests are developed, leading to lower critical values. The approach is used to obtain the minimum duration of data collection to ensure a pre-fixed power for the F test.7149276engANOVAF distributionPathologies comparisonPoisson distributionPower analysisStatistics and ProbabilityStatistics, Probability and Uncertaintyjournal article10.1016/j.spl.2013.02.020https://www.scopus.com/pages/publications/84875788620
