Abstract
Abstract Assuming normality for the prior and the likelihood, we calculate the rejection region, the power or the conditional power, and the predictive power or the conditional predictive power of one-sided hypotheses with a nonzero threshold that corresponds to a noninferiority test for two-arm trials for five different scenarios, which are nonsequential trials with classical power and Bayesian power and sequential trials with hybrid predictions, Bayesian predictions, and classical predictions. The rejection regions and the powers of one-sided hypotheses with a zero threshold that corresponds to a superiority test for two-arm trials are also obtained. Then the calculations of the various powers are illustrated through two examples. The article can be regarded as a reference manual for researchers interested in power calculations of one-sided hypotheses with a nonzero or zero threshold for the five different scenarios assuming normality for the prior and the likelihood.
期刊介绍：
The purpose of Sequential Analysis is to contribute to theoretical and applied aspects of sequential methodologies in all areas of statistical science. Published papers highlight the development of new and important sequential approaches.
Interdisciplinary articles that emphasize the methodology of practical value to applied researchers and statistical consultants are highly encouraged. Papers that cover contemporary areas of applications including animal abundance, bioequivalence, communication science, computer simulations, data mining, directional data, disease mapping, environmental sampling, genome, imaging, microarrays, networking, parallel processing, pest management, sonar detection, spatial statistics, tracking, and engineering are deemed especially important. Of particular value are expository review articles that critically synthesize broad-based statistical issues. Papers on case-studies are also considered. All papers are refereed.
