Two simple tests which allow for unequal sample sizes are considered for testing hypothesis for the common mean of two normal populations. The first test is an exact test of size a based on two available t-statistics based on single samples made exact through random allocation of α among the two available t-tests. The test statistic of the second test is a weighted average of two available t-statistics with random weights. It is shown that the first test is more efficient than the available two t-tests with respect to Bahadur asymptotic relative efficiency. It is also shown that the null distribution of the test statistic in the second test, which is similar to the one based on the normalized Graybill-Deal test statistic, converges to a standard normal distribution. Finally, we compare the small sample properties of these tests, those given in Zhou and Mat hew (1993), and some tests given in Cohen and Sackrowitz (1984) in a simulation study. In this study, we find that the second test performs better than the tests given in Zhou and Mathew (1993) and is comparable to the ones given in Cohen and Sackrowitz (1984) with respect to power.. |
