is it enough to decide the significance of the model, confidence interval and confidence level? total sample population is 10000. please help me |

> total sample population is 10000
Please clarify. are you saying that you drew a sample of 300 cases from a population of 10,000 cases? or Are you saying you drew a sample of 10,000 cases from a larger population and then drew as subsample of 300cases from the 10,000cases? You appear to be standing the decision making process on its head. Typically I recommend sticking with .05 as alpha and .80 as beta. Then you would ask what size effect would make a difference in theorizing, practice, or policy. Then use statistical power software to see what sample size would make a difference. Please describe what your population is. What data do you have on the whole population? On the 10,000 cases? What questions are you using the data to answer? What is the substantive meaning of your dependent value?

oops! that last
question should be:
What is the substantive meaning of your dependent VARIABLE?
