G*Power 3: A flexible statistical power analysis program for the social, behavioral, and biomedical sciences

Open access

Abstract

G*Power (Erdfelder, Faul, & Buchner, 1996) was designed as a general stand-alone power analysis program for statistical tests commonly used in social and behavioral research. G*Power 3 is a major extension of, and improvement over, the previous versions. It runs on widely used computer platforms (i.e., Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Mac OS X 10.4) and covers many different statistical tests of the t, F, and chi2 test families. In addition, it includes power analyses for z tests and some exact tests. G*Power 3 provides improved effect size calculators and graphic options, supports both distribution-based and design-based input modes, and offers all types of power analyses in which users might be interested. Like its predecessors, G*Power 3 is free.

  • Probably not a substantial claim. 51

  • The authors state this as an assumption.

    The univariate approach to repeated measures assumes sphericity: in the population all variances of the repeated measurements are equal and all correlations between pairs of repeated measurements are equal.

    “The univariate approach is based on the sphericity assumption.This assumption is correct if (in the population) all variances of the repeated measurements are equal and all correlations between pairs of repeated measurements are equal.”
  • The authors state this as an assumption.

    In the MANOVA model, the rows of the error matrix are independent p-variate normal random vectors with mean 0 and a positive definite covariance matrix.

    “The rows of are taken to be independent p-variate normal random vectors with mean 0 and p p positive definite covariance matrix .”
  • The authors state this as an assumption.

    In G*Power 3, the constant vector in the multivariate general linear hypothesis H0: CBA=0 is assumed to be zero.

    “in G*Power 3, 0 is assumed to be zero”

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.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-22, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-22 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).

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.
