Data Project 2: Hypothesis Testing Theory and Hypotheses In a few short paragraphs, re-state your theory, your null hypothesis, and your alternative hypothes(es). Hypothesis Testing 1) Conduct a basic bivariate hypothesis test showing the relationship between your independent variable and your dependent variable. Explain why you chose the test you did, and what it shows.

8.2 FOUR STEPS TO HYPOTHESIS TESTING The goal of hypothesis testing is to determine the likelihood that a population parameter, such as the mean, is likely to be true. In this section, we describe the four steps of hypothesis testing that were briefly introduced in Section 8.1: Step 1: State the hypotheses. Step 2: Set the criteria for a decision.

Hypothesis testing will rely extensively on the idea that, having a pdf, one can compute the probability of all the corresponding events. Make sure you understand this point before going ahead. We have seen that the pdf of a random variable synthesizes all the probabilities of realization of the underlying events.

no reason to doubt that the null hypothesis is true. Similarly, if the observed data is "inconsistent" with the null hypothesis (in our example, this means that the sam-ple mean falls outside the interval (90.2, 109.8)), then either a rare event has occurred (rareness is judged by thresholds 0.05 or 0.01) and the null hypothesis is true,

the value specified by H0 is called a two-sided (or two-tailed) test, e.g. H0: µ = 100 HA: µ <> 100 I. Whether you use a 1-tailed or 2-tailed test depends on the nature of the problem. Usually we use a 2-tailed test. A 1-tailed test typically requires a little more theory. Introduction to Hypothesis Testing - Page 1

Because any difference will become "significant" with an arbitrarily large sample, it's important to quantify the effect size that you observe.
