5. Common Classification of Hypothesis
⢠Research Hypothesis
âA possible solution to the research

8. Kinds of Hypothesis
⢠Null Hypothesis
âNull means not, empty or zero
âA hypothesis of no relationship or no
difference
⢠Alternative Hypothesis
âAsserts that there is a significant
relationship or difference between
dependent and independent variable
9.
10. Forms of Alternative Hypothesis
⢠Not interested in the direction of the
difference, whether one is lesser or
greater than the other.
⢠This test uses a two-tailed test, a rigid
test, or a direction of no consequence.
ď§Non-directional Hypothesis
12. Forms of Alternative Hypothesis
ď§ Positive Directional Hypothesis
⢠Uses the positive
tail or the upper
tail of the curve
⢠A one-tailed test,
less rigid test
13. Forms of Alternative Hypothesis
ď§ Negative Directional Hypothesis
⢠Uses the lower
tail of the curve
⢠One-tailed test

16. Charateristic of Good Hypothesis
⢠Clearly states what variables are used
⢠Clearly states how the variables are
used
⢠Determines the purposed of study
⢠Testable
⢠Clearly determines the significance of
the relationship or difference of sets of
variable
17. Charateristic of Good Hypothesis
⢠In comparative analysis, the
intervening variables are clear and
isolated
⢠In a problem of relationship, the
independent and the dependent
variables are clear, specific and
isolated

19. Formulation of Hypothesis
ďźIdentify the independent and dependent
variables to be studied.
ďźSpecify the nature of the relationship that
exists between these variables.
ďźSimple (often referred to as parsimonious).
ďźDoes not refer to specific statistical procedures
that will be used in analysis.
ďźImplies the population that you are going to
study.
ďźIs falsifiable and testable.
20. The hypothesis we want to test is if H1 is
âlikelyâ true.
So, there are two possible outcomes:
ďReject H0 and accept H1 because of
sufficient evidence in the sample in favor or
H1;
ď Do not reject H0 because of insufficient
evidence to support H1.
21. NOTE:
Failure to reject H0 does not
mean the null hypothesis is true.
There is no formal outcome that says
âaccept H0.â It only means that we do
not have sufficient evidence to
support H1.
22. Examples:
1. Significant difference between the
attitude score and academic performance.
H0: There is no significant relationship between
the attitude score and academic performance.
H1: There is significant relationship between the
attitude score and academic performance.
23. Examples:
2. A company manufacturing RAM chips
claims the defective rate of the population is
5%. Let p denote the true defective
probability.
H0: p = 0.05
H1: p > 0.05
