Which of the following statements are not true? A statistical hypothesis is a claim or assertion either about the value of a single parameter about the values of several parameters or about the form of an entire probability distribution. In any hypothesis-testing problem, there are two contradictory hypotheses under consideration. A test of hypothesis is a method for using sample data to decide whether the null hypothesis should be rejected. A type I error consists of not rejecting the null hypothesis Ho when Ho is false. None of the above statements are true.

Select the true statement(s) about hypothesis tests. A statistical hypothesis is always stated in terms of a population parameter. If the value of the test statistic lies in the nonrejection region, then the null hypothesis is true. In a test of a statistical hypothesis, we attempt to find evidence in favor of the null hypothesis. In a test of a statistical hypothesis, there may be more than one alternative hypothesis.
