Type I error Null hypothesis Alternative hypothesis Type II errorarrow_forwardA significance test is based on the following idea: Make an assumption about the population (The null hypothesis an assumption that the parameter equals a value). Then test to see if, under the assumption that the null hypothesis is true how likely is the sample that you got? If the sample you got is likely (within the range of normal defined by o or with probability greater then o) then it is possible that both the sample and the null hypothesis is true. If the sample is not likely then both it and the null hypothesis are probably not both true. Since the sample was collected (under the assumption it was collected well) then the null hypothesis is probably not true and we reject the null hypothesis. There are 3 types of significance tests. Left-sided test: Unusual defined by the test statistic being less than the critical value which cuts off or area in the left tail (note these will be negative values, less then means bigger negative) or a p-value less then a, where p-value is the…arrow_forward
