Hi Nicola,
What's the hypothesis that you want to test?

My research will involve one group of patients (breast cancer patients having chemotherapy) and I will be measuring each patient's quality of life at two points in time. I will therefore have two scores for each patients. Now in order to work out the power on this programme, do I choose 'means: difference between two dependent means (matched pairs)' or 'means: difference from constant (one sample case)'. Alternatively, there is also an option for 'correlation: point biserial model'. I am so confused!!!
