Expanded confidence intervals
Authors:Eve Bofinger
Institution:The University of New England , Armidale, N.S.W., Australia
Abstract:Confidence intervals for location parameters are expanded (in either direction) to some “crucial” points and the resulting increase in the confidence coefficient investigated.Particaular crucial points are chosen to illuminate some hypothesis testing problems.Special results are dervied for the normal distribution with estimated variance and, in particular, for the problem of classifiying treatments as better or worse than a control.For this problem the usual two-sided Dunnett procedure is seen to be inefficient.Suggestions are made for the use of already published tables for this problem.Mention is made of the use of expanded confidence intervals for all pairwise comparisons of treatments using an “honest ordering difference” rather than Tukey's “honest siginificant difference”.
Keywords:threshold  one-tailed  multiple comparisons  studentized range  comparisons with control
