Abstract
Computer-generated Monte Carlo techniques were used to assess the relative power of Wilcoxon's rank-sum test and the independent means t test under a certain mixed normal distribution. Results showed a very largepoweradvantagefor the Wilcoxon statistic. This indicates that the very large advantages promised by asymptotic theory may be obtained with samples of sizes commonly encountered in social science research.
