In hypothesis testing, when the p value is less than the significance level (the alpha, usually 0.05 in social science), we... A. reject the null hypothesis B. fail to reject the null hypothesis C. can not decide D. accept the null hypothesis

The significance level and P-value of a hypothesis test are given. Decide whether the null hypothesis should be rejected. α=0.05, p-value= 0.013 A: reject the null hypothesis B: Do not reject the null hypothesis
The P-value for a hypothesis test is shown. Use the P-value to decide whether to reject $H_{0}$ when the level of significance is (a) $\alpha=0.01$ (b) $\alpha=0.05,$ and $(c) \alpha=0.10$. $$P=0.0062$$
