ABSTRACT

Consideration of the power of classical statistical tests lagged behind the concern with p values. So it has been with randomization tests. For the sake of readers who are hazy about the concept of power, we begin with a brief summary of how power relates to other concepts we have discussed, before going on to take a look at what is known about the power of randomization tests. For readers who want a more detailed treatment of power, Allison, Silverstein, and Gorman (1996) is both clear and practically useful.
