Peer reviewedMorse, David T. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1999
Describes the MINISIZE 2 computer program, which permits the user to determine the effect size and the minimum sample size needed so that results of a given analysis will be statistically significant. Explains the program's operation and provides examples. (SLD)

Peer reviewedZimmerman, Donald W. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1987
A program obtained random samples from known populations, some of which violated the homogeneity assumption. Student t tests and Mann-Whitney U Tests were performed on the sample value. Where the t test led to incorrect decisions, the use of Mann-Whitney U test in its place led to poorer results. (JAZ)
