Please define each of the following terms and provide a hypothetical example for each: hypothesis testing, null
Question:
Please define each of the following terms and provide a hypothetical example for each: hypothesis testing, null and alternative hypothesis, non-directional and directional hypothesis, type I error in testing hypothesis, type II error in testing hypothesis, probability of type I error (ɑ), probability of type II error (ß), power of the test and its significance, the critical value(s) in a test, p value (significance level).
● What is the difference between testing hypothesis on a population and testing hypothesis when comparing two populations? Provide hypothetical examples.
● What are the possible outcomes in testing a hypothesis? What are the determinant factors in deciding the critical value(s) in testing a hypothesis?
● When the z statistic is appropriate to be used in testing a hypothesis? When the t- statistic is appropriate to be used in testing a hypothesis? For each case, include the underlying assumptions, and the test statistic, for both testings a hypothesis on the mean of the population, and testing hypothesis in comparing the value of the mean in a population with the value of the mean in another population.
●What is the criterion for rejecting the null hypothesis for both non-directional and directional tests?
●How do you find the p-value in each case? Do not forget to discuss cases that involve proportion(s).
● When the chi-squared statistic is used in testing hypotheses? Include underlying assumptions and the test statistic for testing hypotheses on a single population. ●What is the criterion for rejecting the null hypothesis for both non-directional and directional tests? ●How do you find the p-value in each case?
