Document Summary

Discuss the critical values, the rejection regions, likelihood of rejecting h0, and the likelihood of a type iii error. Sampling distribution: what do we ask ourselves about where this one sample mean is coming from when doing hypothesis testing (i. e. retaining or rejecting h0) Control type iii error : do two tailed test. Type 2 is osmething we can compute can not directly control it bc based on many different factors can estimate. As researchers, we are only obtaining one observed sample mean in our study.
