Step 1

Let's say we are interested in the population mean (µ). Step 2: State the null hypothesis (H₀). The null hypothesis is a statement that there is no effect or difference. In this case, we can state the null hypothesis as: H₀: µ = µ₀ where µ₀ is a specific Show more…

Key Concepts

Null Hypothesis

The null hypothesis is a default statement asserting that there is no effect, difference, or relationship in the context of the research problem. It serves as a baseline assumption and is tested against the possibility of an effect, where any observed deviation is attributed to random chance or sampling variability.

Alternative Hypothesis

The alternative hypothesis is a statement that contradicts the null hypothesis by proposing that there is an effect, difference, or relationship present. It forms the basis of the research question being tested and represents the outcome the researcher expects or wishes to confirm through statistical analysis.
