Statistics & Probability Letters, 1990, vol. 10, issue 4, 291-295

Abstract: The supremum of the size of the MWW test under all kinds of dependencies between samples is estimated. If dependencies between observations in samples are also allowed then the size of the test can some arbitrarily close to 1. If observations in both samples are independent, an interval containing the supremum is given, and the interval reduces to a point when the samples are very small.
