C. It is the exact significance level for the test

D. Given the p-value, we can make inferences without referring to statistical tables

Câu 1: Consider a standard normally distributed variable, a t-distributed variable with d degrees of freedom, and an F-distributed variable with (1, d) degrees of freedom. Which of the following statements is FALSE?

A. The standard normal is a special case of the t-distribution, the square of which is a special case of the F-distribution

B. Since the three distributions are related, the 5% critical values from each will be the same

C. Asymptotically, a given test conducted using any of the three distributions will lead to the same conclusion
