Abstract

This paper discusses some extremely important notions which highly impact research design, focusing on three concepts more and more used in quantitative approaches: statistical power, sensitivity and size effect. By presenting linguistically-oriented examples, explanations are given for the potential uses of these methodological tools both in Social Sciences in general and in Linguistics in particular.
