At the Image Size menu, make sure that the "resample" check box at the bottom of the menu is selected. Then enter the desired resolution and width/height. For printing an image, a resolution of 300 pixels/inch or more is desirable. When images are intended for computer or web display, 72 pixels/inch (sometimes referred to as dpi) is sufficient. You can set the image size in pixels (at the top of the menu) or in inches (at the lower part of the menu). Once the desired sizes are entered you only need to press "ok" for the change to be made.
