How to calculate a power analysis for sample size?
Struggling to understand power analyses and how to calculate sample size
How to Calculate Power Analysis?
If you want to get pointed to a guide - read the SMAD section on power budgets.
I could go I to more detail but that book will be the better teacher anyway.

To keep this broad: Basically I'm looking at 5 different treatments, sex as a biological variable is being taken into account. Comparing mouse to human data. I need to figure out how many mice I need.
2 sexes * 5 treatments * 2 groups per treatment (experimental and control) = 20 groups.
How do I calculate the sample size needed? I have a weak understanding of statistics so I don't quite understand the parameters I need to set up and the explanations on G*Power and other calculators I found online are unclear.
Thank you!
I'm hoping to get my thesis proposal approved and my advisor is asking me to run a power analysis to calculate sample size required. My study is going to be a correlational study based on the effectiveness of variable m in moderating a pathway that says if f is high then i follows. Data will be collected at two time points and then analyzed using structural equation modeling to determine the effect m had on the pathways and variables.
My current question is, how do I determine a sample size for the study I want to run? I would like the alpha to be .05 and beta to be .95 I am not sure what the r coefficient should be. From my limited statistics knowledge I believe .3 is a moderate correlation but something along the .5 range would obviously be better. If anyone has any advice or can offer help I would greatly appreciate it. I can give more information if it's needed.
