In Example 2‚ the independent variable is violence (mild vs. none)‚ and the dependent variable is aggressiveness on the playground. The hypotheses in Examples 1 and 2 are examples of directional hypotheses. In a directional hypothesis‚ we predict which group will be higher or have more of something. Sometimes we have a nondirectional hypothesis. Consider Example 3. Example 3 It is hypothesized that the child-rearing

TYPES OF HYPOTHESES There are three types of hypotheses which will be explored here: • Research Hypotheses Research hypotheses are most nearly like hypotheses defined earlier.

Donald Noel and Robert Blauner have analyzed this initial contact and developed hypotheses that aid in the understanding of this phase of the inter-group relations. The Noel hypothesis recognizes that there are three segments to the contact situation‚ that when working together‚ lead to some sort of inequality between the groups. The
