Abstract

It is well known that the assumption of independence is ofter not valid for real data. This phenomenon has been observed empirically by many prominent scientists. In this article the sensitivity of dependence on Bayes test of a sharp null hypothesis is considered. The robustness is considered with respect to the significant level and the prior probability on the null hypothesis.
