When data are dichotomous, this paper notes the utility of inverse sampling in establishing equivalence with respect to the risk ratio. This paper develops an exact equivalence test that accounts for the risk ratio under inverse sampling and further discusses the relationship between the exact equiv

โฆ Synopsis
Inverse sampling is a sampling design in which one continues sampling subjects until one obtains a predetermined number of index subjects. This paper derives a procedure for calculation of the minimum required number of index subjects on the basis of the exact conditional test under inverse sampling. This paper studies quantitatively the effect on power calculations of the number of index subjects. To facilitate use of inverse sampling in study designs, this paper further provides a table that summarizes, in a variety of situations, the minimum required number of index subjects for powers equal to 090 and 080 at 0.05-level. It also includes a discussion on use of the approximation sample size formula derived on the basis of a variance-stabilizing transformation and large sample theory.

This paper provides practical, tailored advice on the selection of sample sizes for list testing. The advice is based on an economic decision model that accounts for both the statistical properties of test samples and the economic factors relevant to the sample-size selection decision. This economic
