Minimum important difference is minimally important in sample size calculations
Abstract Performing a sample size calculation for a randomized controlled trial requires specifying an assumed benefit (that is, the mean improvement in outcomes due to the intervention) and a target power. There is a widespread belief that judgments about the minimum important difference should be...
