We Need More Power

The call to use larger sample sizes in psychological research has
been around for decades, but only relatively recently have
researchers substantially increased the number of people in their
studies. Although this change is certainly a good thing, it is
quite possible that the emphasis on large sample sizes impacts
certainly people (e.g., researchers with limited funding and access
to no or small participant pools) and research areas (e.g.,
programs of research aimed at hard-to-recruit samples) more than
others. In this episode, we discuss whether this is an issue for
the field. We also talk about whether we've gone far enough to
increase the sample sizes in our research. Marginally Significant
