If\(\style{font-family:Times New Roman;}{\Delta_{\text{o}}\neq0}\), then the value\(\style{font-family:Times New Roman;}{\Delta_{\text{o}}}\)is subtracted from each observation in sample 1. This will:


“shift” sample 1, effectively making\(\style{font-family:Times New Roman;}{{\overset˜\mu}_1={\overset˜\mu}_2}\)ifH0is true.



correct for non-normality of both populations.



effectively do nothing, because subtracting\(\style{font-family:Times New Roman;}{\Delta_{\text{o}}}\)from the values will not change the median.



help smooth out discontinuities that occur when attempting to perform the test on discrete data.
