zero. We have a sample from which a statistic is calculated and will challenge our held belief or "status quo" or null hypothesis. Now you present a case where the null hypothesis is true, so the only possible error we could make is to reject the null hypothesis- a type I error.
Hypothesis testing generally sets a criteria for the test statistic to reject Ho or fail to reject Ho, so both type 1 and 2 errors are possible.
It means that, if the null hypothesis is true, there is still a 1% chance that the outcome is so extreme that the null hypothesis is rejected.
The p value for rejecting an hypothesis is more closely related to the type of errors and their consequences. The p value is not determined by the chi square - or any other - test but by the impact of the decision made on the basis of the test. The two types of errors to be considered are: what is the probability that you reject the null hypothesis when it is actually true (type I error), and what is the probability that you accept the null hypothesis when, in fact, it is false (type I error).. Reducing one type of error increase the other and there is a balance to be struck between the two. This balance will be influenced by the costs associated with making the wrong error. In real life, the effects (costs/benefits) of decisions are very asymmetrical.
A beta error is another term for a type II error, an instance of accepting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false.
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.
This is when you reject a null hypothesis even though it is actually true...Example:1. A man is on trial for murder, he is actually INNOCENT, but found GUILTY - That is a Type I error2. A man is on trial for murder he is actually GUILTY, but found INNOCENT - That is a Type II error
It is the same as the significance level of the test - often 5%.
If the type 1 error has a probability of 01 = 1, then you will always reject the null hypothesis (false positive) - even when the evidence is wholly consistent with the null hypothesis.
It means that, if the null hypothesis is true, there is still a 1% chance that the outcome is so extreme that the null hypothesis is rejected.

In hypothesis testing, a Type I error occurs when a true null hypothesis is incorrectly rejected, while a Type II error occurs when a false null hypothesis is not rejected.
An alpha error is another name in statistics for a type I error, rejecting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true.
A beta error is another term for a type II error, an instance of accepting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false.

Rejecting a true null hypothesis.
This is when you reject a null hypothesis even though it is actually true...Example:1. A man is on trial for murder, he is actually INNOCENT, but found GUILTY - That is a Type I error2. A man is on trial for murder he is actually GUILTY, but found INNOCENT - That is a Type II error
