A test of H₀: $\mu$ = 0 versus H_a: $\mu$ 0 is conducted on the same population independently by two different researchers. They both use the same sample size and the same value of $\alpha$ = 0.05. Which of the following will be the same for both researchers? A) The p-value of the test. B) The power of the test if the true $\mu$ = 6. C) The value of the test statistic. D) The decision about whether or not to reject the null hypothesis.

Question

A test of H₀: $\mu$ = 0 versus H_a: $\mu$> 0 is conducted on the same population independently by two different researchers. They both use the same sample size and the same value of $\alpha$ = 0.05. Which of the following will be the same for both researchers? A) The p-value of the test. B) The power of the test if the true $\mu$ = 6. C) The value of the test statistic. D) The decision about whether or not to reject the null hypothesis.

The power of the test depends on the sample size, significance level, and the true value of $\mu$, which are the same for both researchers.
