Simulation results of 10,000 iterations calculating the overlap of confidence intervals of various sizes generated from log-normal populations with mean of 12.2 and variance of 0.08 (log-normal parameter values of μ = 2.5 and σ2 = 0.0005).

Values that represent the preferred choice of confidence interval to mimic tests with alpha of 0.05 and 0.10 are marked with an asterisk (*). This table represents only one set of parameter values considered (among 48 sets considered) and is meant to represent typical results associated with the other population values considered in our simulations.
