If a researcher wishes to increase the power of her study, which of the following approaches could be taken?
  1. Increase the sample size.
  2. Decrease the sample size.
  3. Increase the length of time the study will take place.
  4. Change the number and type of dependent variables.
Explanation
Answer: A − Increasing sample size is the simplest way of increasing the power of a study because the power depends on the sample size and to a lesser degree, the variation within the groups in the study. The length of the study and the types of dependent variables will not affect the power of the study.
