What is it called when scientists state whether their data confirmed or rejected the hypothesis?
Drawing a conclusion apex
Do scientists consider hypothesis as being a fact?
No. In science, facts are those phenomena which can be consistently observed and measured. A hypothesis is a testable, educated guess about what sort of rules might govern the behavior of the observed phenomena. Once a hypothesis is formed, it is then tested to determine how well it fits teh phenomena, and whether it can therefore provide a useful means of predicting the behavior of similar phenomena. If the hypothesis fails to provide an explanation with verifiable predictive power, it is rejected, and a new hypothesis is formed, then that new hypothesis is tested. If the hypothesis is verified -- testing shows that it does provide a useful explanation of teh phenomena with some predictive power -- then it may eventually become a _theory_, providing it stands up to repeated testing, and is not falsified (and therefore rejected). A theory represents a well-tested explanation for how a particular phenomenon or particular phenomena behave. All of the "testing" refered to above will be carried out according to the _scientific method_. So a "theory" is not a fact, but an -explanation- for observed facts. And a "Hypothesis" is a working model for a theory, a model awaiting testing, or in the process of being tested.
A scientist on television states that a hypothesis cannot be proven Access why this statement is correct?
When a hypothesis is proven, it is no longer a hypothesis; a proven hypothesis is a theory.
What statement supports the hypothesis?
Your prediction is what supports your hypothesis.
What is meant by null hypothesis rejected?
It tells us that H1,H0 (alternative )hypothesis is selected
What is Hypothesis H0 and H1?
H0 is the null hypothesis and h1 is the alternative hypothesis
How many types of errors in taking a decision about Ho?
There are two types of errors associated with hypothesis testing. Type I error occurs when the null hypothesis is rejected when it is true. Type II error occurs when the null hypothesis is not rejected when it is false. H0 is referred to as the null hypothesis and Ha (or H1) is referred to as the alternative hypothesis.
What is the symbol for alternative hypothesis?
Either H1 or Ha.
What is Rejected Hypothesis?
It is when you know that your hypothesis is wrong.
What causes a hypothesis to be rejected?
A hypothesis will be rejected if it fails the necessary testing required for it to become a scientific theory.
Does the Null hypothesis always include an equality?
Yes; the null hypothesis, H0, always includes an equality. The alternative hypothesis, H1, is >, <, or does not equal.
What is the symbol for research hypothesis?
symbol for research hypothesis are written in two ways . Ha or H1 . both meant to address research hypothesis.
Why can an accepted hypothesis be rejected at a later date?
The answer to the question why is this: It can be rejected at a later date because it is falsifiable in nature if it is a good hypothesis. If you meant to ask HOW it can be rejected, the answer is by way of further experimentation that rules out some or all of the hypothesis as stated.
What do you call the statement that determines if the null hypothesis is rejected?
The hypothesis test.
Are hypothesis often rejected?
no. you need to have solid proof that it exist.. else it will be rejected.
Can hypothesis be supported or rejected by through experimentation?
yes
