Null Hypothesis (H0): The null hypothesis is a statement about a population parameter that the researcher believes is true and wants to test. It is the default position that the researcher aims to disprove.
Statistical Hypothesis Test: A statistical hypothesis test is a method for making decisions about a population parameter based on sample data. It involves formulating null and alternative hypotheses and then using statistical evidence to determine whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Population Parameter: A population parameter is a numerical characteristic of an entire population, such as the mean, proportion, or standard deviation. Hypothesis tests are used to make inferences about population parameters based on sample data.
