A prehistoric homo erectus woman is interested in surviving the harsh environment. One night by the campfire, she hears a rustle in the bushes. She hypothesizes that there is a predator in the bushes. If there is a predator, she and her tribe would like to move to shelter which will result in losing her dinner. If there is not a predator she would like to stay and have dinner. If the null hypothesis is that there is a predator, and the alternative is that there is not a predator, then which type of error would be preferable to make? Should she focus on minimizing her level of significance or maximizing her power in this test?
Group of answer choices
Type II is preferable, she should maximize power
Type I is preferable, she should maximize power
Type II is preferable, she should minimize significance
Type I error is preferable, she should minimize significance
