A Directional Hypothesis 1. State hypotheses H 1 : > 100 u Reading to young children will increase IQ scores. H 0 : < 100 u Reading to young children will decrease or not change IQ scores. ~TRANSCRIPT

Testing Hypotheses II
Lesson 10
![Page 2: Testing Hypotheses II Lesson 10. A Directional Hypothesis (1-tailed) n Does reading to young children increase IQ scores? = 100, = 15, n = 25 l sample](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082723/5a4d1ad37f8b9ab05997232d/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
A Directional Hypothesis (1-tailed)
Does reading to young children increase IQ scores?
= 100, = 15, n = 25 sample mean also same zobs will be the same as 2-tailed test
Differences from nondirectional hypotheses critical region ~

A Directional Hypothesis
1. State hypotheses H1: > 100
Reading to young children will increase IQ scores.
H0: < 100 Reading to young children will
decrease or not change IQ scores. ~

A Directional Hypothesis
2. Set criterion for rejecting H0
= .05, level of significance directional (one-tailed) test zCV = +1.645
critical value for area = .05 in upper tail ~

4. Interpret Results
Is zobs in the critical region? yes reject H0, accept H1
These data suggest that reading to young children does increase IQ.
Difference is statistically significant but not for 2-tailed test lower criterion than 2-tailed ~

Significance of Result
If reject H0
Statistical significance difference between groups is ...
greater than expected by chance alone Does NOT say it is meaningful
Even very small effects can be statistically significant
How? ~

Significance of Result
If fail to reject H0
Data are inconclusive Does not mean that there is no
difference Why might there be a Type II error? ~

Practical Significance
Extent to which difference is important Magnitude of effect Independent of statistical significance
Effect size APA recommends it be reported Pearson’s correlation coefficient, r
Will cover later Cohen’s d ~

Significance Testing: Issues Focus on H0 rather than data H0 is always false Small differences can be statistically
significant Focus on results of single study
rather than accumulation Focus on , ignoring Focus on p-values misleading Dichotomy vs continuum ~
