6.112 Effect of changing the alternative μ on power.
The Statistical Power applet illustrates the power calculation similar to that in Figure 6.18 (page 345). Open the applet and keep the default settings for the null (μ=0) and the alternative (μ>0) hypotheses, the sample size (n=10), the standard deviation (σ=1), and the significance level (α=0.05). In the “alt μ=” box, enter the value 1. What is the power? Repeat for alternative μ equal to 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9. Make a table giving μ and the power. What do you conclude?
