MHB Sample Size determination question

AI Thread Summary
To determine the sample size for a study comparing patient outcomes between Nurse Practitioners with varying clinical experience, an alpha level of 0.05 and a power of 0.8 are specified. A Power & Sample Size Calculator can be utilized to compute the necessary sample size based on these parameters. The calculation will depend on the expected effect size and the specific statistical tests planned for analysis. It is essential to input the relevant data into the calculator to obtain accurate sample size estimates. Proper sample size determination is crucial for ensuring the validity of the research findings.

I have for class a research design of Nurse Practitioners, who have had clinical experience of 2 years or more with those, who have less than 1 year to determine if there is a difference in patient outcomes with those, who have diabetes and those, who have hypertension. IF I use an alpha level of 0.5 and a power of .8, how do I determine the sample size?
