Type...type...type 1 error. And all this error means is that you've rejected-- this is the error of rejecting-- let me do this in a different color-- rejecting the null hypothesis even though it is true. Even though it is true. So for example, in a lot, in actually all of the hypothesis testing examples we've seen, we start assuming that the null hypothesis is true. We assume... We always assume that the null hypothesis is true. And given that the null hypothesis is true, we say OK, if the null hypothesis is true then the mean is usually going to be equal to some value. So we create some distribution. Assuming that the null hypothesis is true, it normally has some mean value right over there. Then we have some statistic and we're seeing if the null hypothesis is true, what is the probability of getting that statistic, or getting a result that extreme or more extreme then that sta
by the level of significance and the power for the test. Therefore, you should determine which error has more severe consequences for your situation before you define their risks. No hypothesis test is http://support.minitab.com/en-us/minitab/17/topic-library/basic-statistics-and-graphs/hypothesis-tests/basics/type-i-and-type-ii-error/ 100% certain. Because the test is based on probabilities, there is always a chance of drawing an incorrect conclusion. Type I error When the null hypothesis is true and you reject it, you make a type I error. The probability of making a type I error is α, which is the level of significance you set for your hypothesis test. An α of 0.05 indicates that you are willing to accept probability of a 5% chance that you are wrong when you reject the null hypothesis. To lower this risk, you must use a lower value for α. However, using a lower value for alpha means that you will be less likely to detect a true difference if one really exists. Type II error When the null hypothesis is false and you fail to reject it, you make a type II error. The probability of probability of type making a type II error is β, which depends on the power of the test. You can decrease your risk of committing a type II error by ensuring your test has enough power. You can do this by ensuring your sample size is large enough to detect a practical difference when one truly exists. The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is false is equal to 1–β. This value is the power of the test. Null Hypothesis Decision True False Fail to reject Correct Decision (probability = 1 - α) Type II Error - fail to reject the null when it is false (probability = β) Reject Type I Error - rejecting the null when it is true (probability = α) Correct Decision (probability = 1 - β) Example of type I and type II error To understand the interrelationship between type I and type II error, and to determine which error has more severe consequences for your situation, consider the following example. A medical researcher wants to compare the effectiveness of two medications. The null and alternative hypotheses are: Null hypothesis (H0): μ1= μ2 The two medications are equally effective. Alternative hypothesis (H1): μ1≠ μ2 The two medications are not equally effective. A type I error occurs if the resear
