No. In fact, in statistics, an hypothesis is a statement whose truth is to be tested. In science, an hypothesis is a way of summarising a body of information that is capable of being shown to be false.

A hypothesis is a statement of fact true or false?

A hypothesis is a statement.


True or false If your experiment does not support your hypothesis you should change your data to give support to the hypothesis?

False- The hypothesis is your prediction of what you expect to happen. If the data does not agree with your hypothesis you simply explain why your hypothesis did not come true and possibly investigate variable which would allow your hypothesis to come true.

Can a hypothesis be proven true?

No. A hypothesis is an educated guess, based on observation. Usually, a hypothesis can be supported or refuted through experimentation or more observation. A hypothesis can be disproven, but not proven to be true.


If the null hypothesis is true and the researchers do not reject it then a correct decision has been made?

True because the point of the hypothesis test is to figure out the probability of the null hypothesis being true or false. If it is tested and it is true, then you do not reject but you reject it, when it is false.


Is hypothesis a part of conclusion?

Can the alternative hypotheses be true and false?

Yes, the alternative hypothesis can be either true or false, depending on the context of the study or experiment. In hypothesis testing, the alternative hypothesis represents a statement that contradicts the null hypothesis; thus, only one can be true at a given time. If the alternative hypothesis is true, it suggests that there is a significant effect or difference, while if it is false, it indicates that the null hypothesis holds true. Ultimately, statistical tests aim to gather evidence to support one hypothesis over the other.


What is Hypothesis Testing of Type I Error?
