... The method of hypothesis testing uses tests of significance to determine the likelihood that a statement (often related to the mean or variance of a given distribution) is true, and at what likelihood we would, as statisticians, accept the statement as true. While understanding the mathematical conc ...

The null hypothesis, denoted by H0 , is a tentative assumption about a population parameter. The alternative h ...

... We know an “A” is higher than a “C”, but we don’t know by exactly by how much. “Strongly Disagree” is an opinion which is very different from “Strongly Agree,” but exactly how different is unknown. Interval data is similar to ordinal data; but, distances between points on a specified measurement sca ...
