Introduction
Researchers are interested in answering many types
of questions.
Such questions can be answered through statistical
hypothesis testing, which is a decision-making
process for evaluating claims about a population.
![Page 3: Chapter 8: Hypothesis Testing - kau · 2020. 9. 5. · 8 –1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing A statistical hypothesis is an conjecture about a population parameter.This conjecture may](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062510/613753180ad5d20676488bec/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
8 – 1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing
A statistical hypothesis is an conjecture about a population
parameter. This conjecture may or may not be true.
The null hypothesis (𝑯𝟎) is a statistical hypothesis that states
that there is no difference between a parameter and a
specific value.
The alternative hypothesis (𝑯𝟏) is a statistical hypothesis
that states that there is a difference between a parameter and
a specific value.

8 – 1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing (cont.)
In this course, we are interested in statistical hypotheses that
compare the population mean (i.e., 𝜇) to a specified number
(e.g., k).
Types of tests: The null and alternative hypotheses are stated
together as follows:
Two-tailed
test
Right-tailed
test
Left-tailed test
Null
Hypothesis
𝑯𝟎: 𝝁 = 𝒌 𝑯𝟎: 𝝁 ≤ 𝒌 𝑯𝟎: 𝝁 ≥ 𝒌
Alternative
Hypothesis
𝑯𝟏: 𝝁 ≠ 𝒌 𝑯𝟏: 𝝁 > 𝒌 𝑯𝟏: 𝝁 < 𝒌

Example 8 – 1
State the null and alternative hypotheses for each
conjecture:
a) A researcher thinks that if expectant mothers use
vitamin pills, the birth weight of the babies will
increase. The average birth weight of the
population is 8.6 pounds.

8 – 1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing (cont.)
A statistical test uses the data obtained from a
sample to decide about whether the null hypothesis
should be rejected.
The numerical value obtained from a statistical test is
called the test value.
![Page 12: Chapter 8: Hypothesis Testing - kau · 2020. 9. 5. · 8 –1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing A statistical hypothesis is an conjecture about a population parameter.This conjecture may](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062510/613753180ad5d20676488bec/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
8 – 1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing (cont.)
A correct decision occurs if you reject the null
hypothesis when it is false or do not reject the null
hypothesis when it is true.
A type I error occurs if you reject the null hypothesis
when it is true.
A type II error occurs if you do not reject the null
hypothesis when it is false.
![Page 13: Chapter 8: Hypothesis Testing - kau · 2020. 9. 5. · 8 –1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing A statistical hypothesis is an conjecture about a population parameter.This conjecture may](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062510/613753180ad5d20676488bec/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
8 – 1: Steps in Hypothesis Testing (cont.)
The level of significance is the maximum probability of
committing a type I error. This probability is symbolized by 𝜶.
The p-value is the probability of getting a sample statistic
(such as the sample mean) in the direction of the alternative
hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true.
If the p-value is more than 𝜶, the decision is to not reject the
null hypothesis
If the p-value is less than 𝜶, the decision is to reject the null
hypothesis

8 – 2: Z–Test for a Mean
The Z-test is a statistical test for the mean of a
population. It can be used when the population is
normally distributed, and the population standard
deviation (i.e., 𝜎) is known. The formula for the Z-
test is
𝒁 =ഥ𝒙 − 𝒌
𝝈/ 𝒏
where ഥ𝒙 is the sample mean, 𝒏 is the sample size,
and 𝒌 hypothesized population mean.

8 – 2: Z–Test for a Mean (cont.)
A researcher wishes to see if the mean number of days that a basic, low-price, small automobile sits on a dealer’s lot is 29. A sample of 30 automobile dealers has a mean of 30.1 days for basic, low-price, small automobiles. The standard deviation of the population is 3.8 days. At a 0.05, test the claim that the mean time is:
a. greater than 29 days.
b. not equal to 29 days.
c. Less than 29 days.

A sample of 30 (=𝒏) automobile dealers has a mean of 30.1 days (= ഥ𝒙)for basic, low-price, small automobiles. The standard deviation of the population is 3.8 (= 𝜎)days.
