Topics in Hypothesis Testing

1

1. Hypothesis and Hypothesis Testing

  • A hypothesis is a testable, educated guess or a tentative explanation for a phenomenon that serves as the starting point for further investigation.
  • Hypothesis testing is a statistical method used to determine whether there is enough evidence in a sample of data to infer that a certain condition is true for the entire population.
  • Hypothesis testing always involves two opposing statements about a population.

2. Null Hypothesis and Alternative Hypothesis

  • The null hypothesis represents the default assumption or status quo.
  • The null hypothesis states that there is no effect, no relationship, or no difference between variables.
  • The alternative hypothesis is the hypothesis being tested for.

3. Type I Error and Type II Error

  • A Type I error is a false positive.
  • A Type I error occurs when a true null hypothesis is rejected.
  • The symbol for Type I error is α (alpha).

  • Correlation is the tendency of simultaneous variation between two variables.
  • Correlation measures the degree to which two variables move in relation to each other.
