This study introduces a new Bayesian method for sample size determination in health sciences research. It enables simultaneous evaluation of intra- and inter-method agreement for continuous measurements.

Area of Science:

  • Health Sciences
  • Biostatistics
  • Measurement Science

Background:

  • Studies frequently assess agreement within a single measurement method (intra-method) and between different methods (inter-method).
  • Existing literature lacks methods for determining sample sizes when simultaneously evaluating both intra- and inter-method agreement.
  • Accurate sample size determination is crucial for reliable agreement assessment in health research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel simulation-based Bayesian methodology for sample size determination.
  • To address the gap in sample size calculation for studies evaluating simultaneous intra- and inter-method agreement.
  • To provide a flexible framework applicable to various scalar agreement measures.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a simulation-based Bayesian approach within a hierarchical model framework.

  • The methodology accounts for uncertainty in parameter estimates, differing from frequentist approaches.
  • Applied the method to assess agreement measures for proteomics and blood pressure measurements.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed Bayesian methodology offers a robust approach to sample size determination for agreement studies.
    • Demonstrated application with four common scalar agreement measures.
    • Successfully applied to real-world scenarios in proteomics and blood pressure measurement studies.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed Bayesian methodology effectively determines sample sizes for simultaneous intra- and inter-method agreement evaluation.
    • This approach enhances the design of health science studies measuring continuous responses.
    • Provides a valuable tool for researchers in fields requiring robust method agreement assessment.
