Button et al. (2013) provide a detailed discussion and demonstration of the consequences of low power for replicability. As they indicate, low-powered studies are more likely to produce more false negatives; they have a lower chance of finding a true effect when one exists in the population. Lower power also lowers the positive predictive value (PPV), or the probability that a positive research finding reflects a true effect. A lower-powered study also makes it less likely that an observed effect that passes a significance threshold (e.g., P < .05) reflects a true effect. Finally, even when an underpowered study discovers a true effect, the estimate of the magnitude of the effect is likely to be exaggerated, especially when the effect is newly discovered, called the ‘winner’s circle’ (Ioannidis, 2008). For these reasons, inferential statistics and the NHST framework are largely inappropriate in small sample size research. As such, other approaches must be used to provide evidence that an observed effect is likely to occur in the target population.

Positive predictive value (PPV): The PPV is the likelihood of the correct classification of a positively classified observation. It can be determined from the entries of the confusion matrix: PPV=Pr(Y−=1|Y=1)=TPTP+FP

A number of measures such as accuracy, precision, sensitivity and the F1-score provided an indication of each classification’s effectiveness. The accuracy, which is the ratio of correctly predicted observations, was calculated by the formula (TP + TN)/(TP + TN + FP + FN). The precision or positive predictive value (PPV) is the ratio of correct positive observations. The PPV was calculated by TP/(TP + FP). The F1-score (F1) is used to measure classification performance using the weighted recall and precision, where the recall is the percentage of relevant instances that are retrieved and was calculated by 2 * TP/(2 * TP + FP + FN). The sensitivity or true positive rate was calculated by TP/(TP + FN).
