Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The effect size and the number of participants are two important determinants of power, which is the probability of finding a significant result if the null hypothesis is false. A larger effect size and a larger number of participants increase the power of a study, while a smaller effect size and a smaller number of participants decrease the power of a study. The minimum significant result is determined by the chosen alpha level, which is typically set at 0.05, and is not affected by the effect size or the number of participants. Reliability refers to the consistency and stability of measurements or findings, and is not directly determined by the effect size or the number of participants.
