An Alpha of 5% corresponds to a 95% Confidence Interval. Beta Error Level or Statistical Power [1 - Beta]:  1% 2% 3% 4% 5% 7.5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% 50% 55% 60% 65% 70% 75% 80% 85% 90% 95% (Probability of incorrectly failing to reject the null hypothesis that there is NO difference in the percentage values -- assuming no difference when a real difference exists). A Beta of 50% is used in most simple calculations of sampling error.
