Null Hypothesis
Take Home Test 2 1. A. Null Hypothesis: There are no relations or associations among the groups’ mean scores.
Alternate Hypothesis: There is a relation or association among the student’s grade point averages and “if they rather prefer to stay at home than go out with friends”.
Correlations | | Grade Point Average | I would rather stay at home and read than go out with my friends | Grade Point Average | Pearson Correlation | 1 | .233 | | Sig. (2-tailed) | | .120 | | Sum of Squares and Cross-products | 12.667 | 5.002 | | Covariance | .281 | .111 | | N | 46 | 46 | I would rather stay at home and read than go out with my friends | Pearson Correlation | .233 | 1 | | Sig. (2-tailed) | .120 | | | Sum of Squares and Cross-products | 5.002 | 36.457 | | Covariance | .111 | .810 | | N | 46 | 46 |
Based on the results of our Correlate Bivariate we see that the significance value is more than the p-value of .05 which means that the groups have no relationship between them. The significance value is .120. This means that we are going to accept the Null Hypothesis and reject the Alternate Hypothesis. “I would rather stay at home and read than go out with my friends” has no relationship with the persons GPA.
B. Null Hypothesis: There is no relation or association between people who rarely forget their appointment if they have overdue library books.
Alternative Hypothesis: There is a relationship or association between people who rarely forget their appointment if they have overdue library books.
