  1. Chapter 16Single-Population Hypothesis Tests

  2. Hypothesis Tests • A statistical hypothesis is an assumption about a population parameter. • There are two types of statistical hypotheses. • Null hypothesis -- The null hypothesis, H0, represents a theory that has been put forward, either because it is believed to be true or because it is to be used as a basis for argument, but has not been proved. • Alternative hypothesis (Research hypothesis) -- The alternative hypothesis, H1, is a statement of what a statistical hypothesis test is set up to establish.

  3. Hypothesis Tests Examples • Trials • H0: The person is innocent • H1: The person is guilty • Soda • H0:  = 12 oz • H1:  < 12 oz

  4. Hypothesis Tests • Test Statistics -- the random variable X whose value is tested to arrive at a decision. • Critical values-- the values of the test statistic that separate the rejection and non-rejection regions. • Rejection Region -- the set of values for the test statistic that leads to rejection of H0 • Non-rejection region -- the set of values not in the rejection region that leads to non-rejection of H0

  5. Errors in Hypothesis Tests •  (Significance level): Probability of making Type I error • : Probability of making Type II error • 1-: Power of Test (Probability of rejecting H0 when H0 is false)

  6. Hypothesis TestsTails of a Test

  7. Hypothesis TestsExamples Two-tailed test: According to the US Bureau of the Census, the mean family size was 3.17 in 1991. An economist wants to check whether or not this mean has changed since 1991. H0:  = 3.17 H1:   3.17 C2 C1 1- /2 /2 =3.17 Rejection Region Rejection Region Non-rejection Region

  8. Hypothesis TestsExamples Left-tailed test: A soft-drink company claims that, on average, its cans contain 12 oz of soda. Suppose that a consumer agency wants to test whether the mean amount of soda per can is less than 12 oz. H0:  = 12 H1:  < 12 C 1-  =12 Rejection Region Non-rejection Region

  9. Hypothesis TestsExamples Right-tailed test: According to the US Bureau of the Census, the mean income of all households was $37,922 in 1991. Suppose that we want to test whether the current mean income of all households is higher than $37,922. C H0:  = 37922 H1:  > 37922 1-  =37922 Rejection Region Non-rejection Region

  10. Hypothesis TestsRejection Region Approach • Select the type of test and check the underlying conditions • State the null and alternative hypotheses • Determine the level of significance  • Calculate the test statistics • Determine the critical values and rejection region • Check to see whether the test statistic falls in the rejection region • Make decision

  11. Hypothesis TestsP-Value Approach • Select the type of test and check the underlying conditions • State the null and alternative hypotheses • Determine the level of significance  • Calculate the p-value (the smallest level of significance that would lead to rejection of the null hypothesis H0 with given data) • Check to see if the p-value is less than  • Make decision

  12. Testing Hypothesis on the Meanwith Variance Known (Z-Test) • Null Hypothesis: H0:  = 0 • Test statistic:
