Estimated responses

385

Normal-approximation planning estimate for a large population and simple random sample. Real studies may need design effects, response-rate planning, or expert review.

About this tool

How it works

Uses the normal approximation n = z²p(1−p)/e² and rounds up; it does not apply finite-population correction.

A practical way to use it

Estimate the responses needed for a 95% confidence level and ±5 percentage-point margin.

Use results as a practical aid, and verify important decisions against your own source data and qualified guidance.
