He could not prove how they moved he died before they considered his hypothesis
What else can I help you with?
How do scientists decide whether or not to reject or accept a hypothesis?
if the hypothesis is proven to be correct or incorrect
Why did many scientists reject Wagner's hypothesis?
He could not prove how they moved he died before they considered his hypothesis
Why was Wegener's hypothesis reject?
Alfred Wegener couldn't describe how the plate tectonics moved. So, scientists rejected his hypothesis.
What dose it mean if a scientists fails to reject a hypothesis?
It means there is no reason why he should reject it, whether because there is no evidence to the contrary or because an experiment set up to test it affirmed that hypothesis.
How do scientists determine whether to accept or reject their hypothesis?
Scientists determine whether to accept or reject their hypothesis by conducting experiments and collecting data to test its predictions. They analyze the results statistically to assess if the evidence supports the hypothesis or not. If the data consistently contradicts the hypothesis, it is rejected; if it aligns with the predictions, the hypothesis may be accepted or revised accordingly. Peer review and replication of results by other scientists further validate the findings.
Is the critical region the values of the test statistics for which the null hypothesis will reject?
The null hypothesis will not reject - it is a hypothesis and is not capable of rejecting anything. The critical region consists of the values of the test statistic where YOU will reject the null hypothesis in favour of the expressed alternative hypothesis.
When do we reject a hypothesis?
When we've proven that the hypothesis is false !
If we reject the null hypothesis what can we conclude about the alpha risk?
If we reject the null hypothesis, we conclude that the alternative hypothesis which is the alpha risk is true. The null hypothesis is used in statistics.
What do you mean when you reject a hypothesis on the basis of sample?
alternitive hypothesis
Difference between acceptance and rejection region?
Some researchers say that a hypothesis test can have one of two outcomes: you accept the null hypothesis or you reject the null hypothesis. Many statisticians, however, take issue with the notion of "accepting the null hypothesis." Instead, they say: you reject the null hypothesis or you fail to reject the null hypothesis. Why the distinction between "acceptance" and "failure to reject?" Acceptance implies that the null hypothesis is true. Failure to reject implies that the data are not sufficiently persuasive for us to prefer the alternative hypothesis over the null hypothesis.
At first many scientists rejected Wegener and the hypothesis of continental drift. What was their main objection to his hypothesis?
The main objection to Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift was the lack of a plausible mechanism to explain how continents could move. Wegener's idea of continents plowing through solid oceanic crust was not supported by scientific knowledge at that time, leading many scientists to reject his hypothesis.
Can you accept and reject the null Hypothesis Why or why not?
Some people say you can either accept the null hypothesis or reject it. However, there are statisticians that insist you can either reject it or fail to reject it, but you can't accept it because then you're saying it's true. If you fail to reject it, you're only claiming that the data wasn't strong enough to convince you to choose the alternative hypothesis over the null hypothesis.
