Abstract

The effect of the variance stabilizing transformations on the significance level and power of the F test, applied to Binomial and Poisson variables, was examined by a Monte Carlo study. The results indicate that the significance level is not affected by the transformations and that in most cases the power is not systematically increased by them,
