Estimating Statistical Power and Required Sample Sizes for Organizational Research Using Multilevel Modeling
Abstract
The use of multilevel modeling to investigate organizational phenomena is rapidly increasing. Unfortunately, little advice is readily available for organizational researchers attempting to determine statistical power when using multilevel models or when determining sample sizes for each level that will maximize statistical power. This article presents an introduction to statistical power in multilevel models. The unique factors influencing power in multilevel models and calculations for estimating power for simple fixed effects, variance components, and cross-level interactions are presented. The results of simulation studies and the existing general rules of thumb are discussed, and the available power analysis software is reviewed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
