This will reduce the type 1 error. Since type 1 error is rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true, decreasing alpha (or p value) decreases the risk of rejecting the null hypothesis.
Before conducting a significance test, the statistician will choose an alpha level. Depending upon the severity of having type I or type II error, the statistician will make the alpha level higher or lower. Generally in courts, the alpha level is .05. The other common alpha levels for significance tests are .10 and .01.
In statistics, there are two types of errors for hypothesis tests: Type 1 error and Type 2 error. Type 1 error is when the null hypothesis is rejected, but actually true. It is often called alpha. An example of Type 1 error would be a "false positive" for a disease. Type 2 error is when the null hypothesis is not rejected, but actually false. It is often called beta. An example of Type 2 error would be a "false negative" for a disease. Type 1 error and Type 2 error have an inverse relationship. The larger the Type 1 error is, the smaller the Type 2 error is. The smaller the Type 2 error is, the larger the Type 2 error is. Type 1 error and Type 2 error both can be reduced if the sample size is increased.
The statement is false. For a fixed alpha, an increase in the sample size will cause a decrease in beta (but an increase in the power).
It depends on whether it is the Type I Error or the Type II Error that is increased.
No....the two are mirror images of each other. Reducing type I would increase type II

An alpha error is another name in statistics for a type I error, rejecting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true.
please tell me the answer
Type I error.
In statistics, there are two types of errors for hypothesis tests: Type 1 error and Type 2 error. Type 1 error is when the null hypothesis is rejected, but actually true. It is often called alpha.

I believe you are asking about hypothesis testing, where we choose an alpha value, (also called a signifance level). Thus, I will rephrase your question as follows: If I choose an alpha value of 0.01, what percent of time do you expect the come to an erroneous conclusion, that is test statistic to fall out of the critical region yet the null hypothesis is true? The answer is 1% of the time, an incorrect rejection of the null hypotheis, which is a type I error.
The statement is false. For a fixed alpha, an increase in the sample size will cause a decrease in beta (but an increase in the power).
It is the first letter of the Greek alphabet which can be used, in geometry or algebra, to represent angles. In probability it can be used to represent a Type I error.
The significance level can be reduced.
First, you pick 2nd. then pick alpha. You can now type in EPIC FAILURE OR ANYTHINg else.
alpha particles.
A helium nucleus - more precisely, a helium-4 nucleus - is called an alpha particle. The corresponding decay would be called alpha decay.
