I'm having a hard time coming up with any intuitions regarding
correlations and the statistical power of paired/unpaired t-tests.
I think this is because it seems to me that you can hold one constant
and vary the others wildly (e.g. invent pairs of data sets that
correlate very well but have drastically different results for p values
of paired and unpaired t-tests - which is something I think I've done
with the help of R).
Can anyone maybe give me a hint which may lead me to better intuitions?
Alex
