# Power Analysis Guide
Calculate appropriate sample sizes for your study using power analysis, understand effect sizes, and avoid underpowered or wastefully overpowered designs.
## Core Concepts
### The Four Parameters of Power Analysis
Every power analysis involves four interrelated quantities. Fix any three to solve for the fourth:
| Parameter | Symbol | Definition | Typical Value |
|-----------|--------|-----------|---------------|
| **Effect size** | d, r, f, etc. | Magnitude of the phenomenon you expect to detect | Varies by field |
| **Significance level** (alpha) | alpha | Probability of Type I error (false positive) | 0.05 |
