A hypothesis is a claim Population mean The mean monthly cell phone bill in this city is μ = $42 Population proportion Example: The proportion of adults in this city with cell phones is π = 0.68 States the claim or assertion to be tested Is always about a population parameter‚ not about a sample statistic Is the opposite of the null hypothesis e.g.‚ The average diameter of a manufactured bolt is not equal to 30mm ( H1: μ ≠ 30 ) Challenges the status quo Alternative never contains

CHAPTER I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction A Web site is a related collection of World Wide Web or www files that includes a beginning file called a home page. A company or an individual tells you how to get to their Web site by giving you the address of their home page. From the home page‚ you can get all the other pages on their site.

While the null hypotheses were not explicitly mentioned in the studies‚ they all would have been something along the lines of

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY LESSON 20: PRINCIPLE OF HYPOTHESIS TESTING So far we have talked about estimating a confidence interval along with the probability (the confidence level) that the true population statistic lies within this interval under repeated sampling. We now examine the principles of statistical inference to hypotheses testing. By the end of this chapter you should be able to • Understand what is hypothesis testing • Examine issues relating to the determination of level of How is this
