สรุป	Bayesian confirmatory research is a quantitative framework that tests pre-specified hypotheses by computing the Bayes factor — a ratio expressing how much more likely the observed data are under one hypothesis than another. Unlike classical null-hypothesis significance testing (NHST), it provides direct evidence for both the alternative and the null hypothesis, supports optional stopping rules under certain conditions, and updates prior beliefs with observed data through Bayes' theorem.	Power analysis is a planning and evaluation technique that quantifies the probability of detecting a real effect of a given magnitude at a chosen significance level. It links four quantities — sample size, effect size, significance level (alpha), and statistical power (1 minus beta) — so that researchers can determine the sample size needed before data collection or evaluate the sensitivity of a completed study.
