Kelsie Andersen · Answer 1

The effect of decreasing the alpha level from 0.05 to 0.01. it decreases the probability that the sample will fall into the critical region, it decreases the probability of a Type I error, and it decreases the size of the critical region.

Therefore, the answer is that all of other options are results of decreasing alpha.
