understanding of hypothesis testing. The textbook explained the aspects and steps of hypothesis testing in a legible fashion‚ while the video helped demonstrate a real-life application. I learned from the text that hypothesis testing is a “Procedure for deciding whether the outcome of a study (results from a sample) supports a particular theory or practical innovation (which is thought to apply to a population)” (Aron A.‚ Aron‚ E.‚ and Coups‚ 2011‚ p. 145). I also learned that hypothesis testing

In other side the Null hypothesis (H0(1)) hypothesized that internalized racism do not regress significantly on violence‚ even when accounting for the effect of Self-attitude‚ uncomfortable with neighborhood and Age. The study reject the Null hypothesis. To test this hypothesis‚ the

Hypothesis Testing and Nursing Hypothesis testing is a method of making decisions using data from scientific study. In statistics‚ a result is called statistically significant if it has been predicted as unlikely to have occurred by chance alone‚ according to pre-determined threshold probability‚ the significance level. Statistical hypothesis tests define a procedure that controls (fixes) the probability of incorrectly deciding that a default position (null hypothesis) is incorrect based on how

Migration – Rural-urban migration of newlyweds Migration is the physical movement by humans from one region to another over vast distances across geographic barriers or shorter distances from rural areas to more urbanized cities in their own country of residence. In recent years the rate of rural-urban migration in many less economically developed countries such as China has become alarming as more people waft into the urban centres from the rural areas. In particular many young‚ newlywed couples

Cuban Migration to the United States Considering the close proximity of Cuba to the United States‚ it indicates that there has always been migration between United States and Cuba. During the 1800’s‚ immigration had become very popular amongst Cuba and the United States. In the 1800’s Cuban merchants and businessmen generally conducted business‚ and casually visited United States on vacations‚ and vice-versa. But all that changed when Fidel Castro took over Cuba in 1959‚ hence‚ having a significant
