Abstract
In this paper we use the sensitivity curves of TUKEY (1977) and the change of decision point (cdp) (a modified version of the breakdown point of YLVISAKER, 1977), supplemented by simulation studies to acquire knowledge about sensitivity in generalized Wilcoxon rank test statistics. Sensitivity depends on balanced or unbalanced sample size cases, censoring, combinations of failure distributions and sources of errors in the data. It is important to consider the quality of the data, and the results show that cdp and some properties of the sensitivity curves may serve as a hint when selecting a test statistic and when making a decision for a given test statistic.
