Question
If α = .05 for a two-tailed hypothesis test, how are the boundaries for the critical region determined?
a. |
Boundaries are drawn so there is 10% (.10) in each tail of the distribution.
|
|
b. |
Boundaries are drawn so there is 5% (.05) in each tail of the distribution.
|
|
c. |
Boundaries are drawn so there is 5% (.05) in the center of the distribution.
|
|
d. |
Boundaries are drawn so there is 2.5% (.025) in each tail of the distribution.
