Resumo: The effect of the heterocedasticity of treatments and the distribution of probability over the size and power of the F test was studied, in two experimental designs: complete randomized blocks (with 3, 5, 7, 9 e 11 treatments) and latin square (from sizes 3 x 3 to 7 x 7). Data were generated from seven probability distributions, to wit, normal, uniform, logistic, Laplace, Weibull, exponential and Cauchy. In each case 10,000 experiments were generated and it was counted the number of times the F test was significant, for the null hipotheses either true or false. Based on this counting, it could be concluded that non-normality does not affect the size and the power of the F test, which were affected only when heterocedasticity of the treatments occurred. Transformation of the data is recommended only when there is heterogeneity of variance mainly when associated to normal distribution, in which case the F test was not efficient and had a very bad test-size.

Os dados foram gerados a partir de sete distribuições probabilísticas (normal, uniforme, logística, Laplace, Weibull, exponencial e Cauchy). Para cada caso, geraram-se 10.000 experimentos e contou-se o número de vezes que o teste F foi significativo, tanto nos casos de hipótese nula falsa, quanto verdadeira. Com base nesta contagem, concluiu-se que a não-normalidade dos dados não influenciou o tamanho e o poder do teste F, que só foram afetados quando houve heterogeneidade de variância. Recomenda-se, então, a transformação dos dados somente em casos de heterocedasticidade, principalmente quando associada à distribuição normal, pois, aí, verificou-se que o teste F foi totalmente prejudicado no aspecto de tamanho do teste.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraZimmermann, Francisco José Pfeilsticker2014-04-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/14686Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.22, n.11/12, nov./dez. 1987; 1209-1213Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.22, n.11/12, nov./dez. 1987; 1209-12131678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/14686/8377info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2014-10-14T19:58:45Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/14686Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2014-10-14T19:58:45Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
