For paired data designs, it is the differences that we are interested in analyzing. H0: 0 = 0 vs. ha: d > 0. H0: 0 = 0 vs. ha: d < 0. H0: 0 = 0 vs. ha: d 0. Note: the format of the alternative hypothesis depends on the research question of interest and the order in which the differences were taken. Test statistic and conditions for the test.
