Abstract
Statistical power and effect size are not considered sufficiently by marketing researchers. The authors discuss how better attention to these two factors can improve the planning, execution, and reporting of marketing and consumer research. Suggestions are offered about how to increase effect size and improve statistical power.Keywords
