Question:

Suppose you are testing the hypotheses: H0: π = 0.60 and Ha: π > 0.60 and your sample proportion is 0.61. From this you determine that your standardized statistic is 0.53. What is the correct interpretation of this standardized statistic? 

A. Assuming the null hypothesis is true, the probability you would get an observed statistic of 0.61 or more is 0.53. 

B. Assuming the alternative hypothesis is true, the probability you would get an observed statistic of 0.61 or more is 0.53. 

C. Your observed statistic of 0.61 is 0.53 standard deviations above the mean of the null distribution. 

D. Your observed statistic of 0.53 is 0.61 standard deviations above the mean of the null distribution.
