Let $\mathbf{X}$ have a multivariate, $p$-dimensional normal distribution $(p \geq 2)$ with unknown mean $\mathbf{\mu}$ and known, nonsingular covariance $\mathbf{\Sigma}$. Consider testing $H_0: \mathbf{b}'_i\mathbf{\mu} \leq 0$, for some $i = 1, \ldots, k$, versus $H_1: \mathbf{b}'_i\mathbf{\mu} > 0$, for all $i = 1, \ldots, k$, where $\mathbf{b}_1, \ldots, \mathbf{b}_k, k \geq 2$, are known vectors that define the hypotheses. For any $0 < \alpha < 1/2$, we construct a size-$\alpha$ test that is uniformly more powerful than the size-$\alpha$ likelihood ratio test (LRT). The proposed test is an intersection-union test. Other authors have presented uniformly more powerful tests under restrictions on the covariance matrix and on the hypothesis being tested. Our new test is uniformly more powerful than the LRT for all known nonsingular covariance matrices and all hypotheses. So our results show that, in a very general class of problems, the LRT can be uniformly dominated.
