In statistics and econometrics, what are p-values, F-values and how should we conduct hypothesis tests using these values?
Added by Alan A.
Step 1
A hypothesis test is a statistical method used to determine whether a hypothesis about a population parameter is supported by the sample data. Next, let's define p-values and F-values. A p-value is the probability of obtaining a test statistic as extreme as, Show more…

What is the $p$ -value associated with a test of hypothesis in statistics?
What is the test-statistic and p-value?
Kaylee M.
Determine the $p$ -value that would be used to test the following hypotheses when $z$ is used as the test statistic. a. $\quad H_{o}: p_{1}=p_{2}$ versus $H_{a}: p_{1}>p_{2},$ with $z *=2.47$ b. $\quad H_{o}: p_{A}=p_{B}$ versus, $H_{a}: p_{A} \neq p_{B},$ with $z \star=-1.33$ c. $\quad H_{a}: p_{1}-p_{2}=0$ versus $H_{a}: p_{1}-p_{2}<0,$ with $z *=-0.85$ d. $\quad H_{o}: p_{m}-p_{f}=0$ versus $H_{a}: p_{m}-p_{f}>0,$ with $z *=3.04$
