STATISTICAL HYPOTHESIS

22
Q

if found to be true

23
Q

if found to be false

24
Q

denoted by Ho, a tatement that there is n difference between a parameter and specific value

A

NULL HYPOTHESIS

25
denoted by Ha , the opposite or negation of the null hypothesis
ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS
26
always expressed with equal sign
NULL
27
expressed with inequality signs
ALTERNATIVE
28
words that refer to null
IS EQUAL TO THE SAME AS NOT CHANGED FROM

words that refer to unequal sign
NOT EQUAL DIFFERENT FROM CHANGED FROM NOT THE SAME AS

words that refer to >
GREATER THAN ABOVE HIGHER THAN LOWER THAN BIGGER THAN INCREASED ATLEAST
31
words that refer to <
LESS THAN BELOW LOWER THAN SHORTER THAN SMALLER THAN DECREEASED AT MOST
32
test of any statistical hypothesis where the alternative hypothesis is expressed since the critical value or rejection region lies entirely in one tail of the sampling distribition
DIRECTIONAL TEST
33
where the alternative hypothesis is written with a not equal sign
NON DIRECTIONAL TEST
34
occurs when we reject the null hypothesis when it is true
TYPE 1 ERROR
35
another name for type 1 error
ALPHA ERROR
36
occured when we accept the null hypothesis when it is false
TYPE 2 ERROR
37
another name for type 2 error
BETA ERROR
38
value of a tells us the probability of making an error in rejecting the null hypothesis when its actually true
