When conducting a significance test in practice, how should you choose the alpha level? a) Always use alpha=0.05 since it's the most appropriate for every situation. b) Always use alpha=0.05 since it's the most commonly used one. c) Use a larger alpha when the consequences of mistakenly rejecting the null hypothesis are more serious. d) Use a smaller alpha when the consequences of mistakenly rejecting the null hypothesis are more serious.
