Even more new features with StataNow™

Wish you could access Stata’s newest features as soon as they are developed? You can with StataNow.

StataNow is a continuous-release version of Stata that provides new features as soon as they are ready so that you do not need to wait for the next major release to take advantage of them. StataNow features, like all Stata features, undergo rigorous testing, certification, documentation, and quality control to meet our high standards. These features are prioritized for immediate rollout—instead of being bundled for a major release—and are added to StataNow via free updates.

The latest StataNow update includes Power analysis for logistic regression. Effective study design requires balancing power and resources. Stata’s new power logistic command helps you determine the optimal sample size when testing one coefficient of interest in a logistic regression model.

Use power logistic to compute sample size, power, or effect size for logistic regression with

  • one binary covariate,
  • two binary covariates, or
  • a mix of binary and continuous covariates.

And like all Stata power commands, power logistic supports tabular output and automated graphs, all customizable.
