Calculating the Probability of a Type II Error To properly interpret the results of a test of hypothesis requires that you be able to judge the pvalue of the test. However‚ to do so also requires that you have an understanding of the relationship between Type I and Type II errors. Here‚ we describe how the probability of a Type II error is computed. A Type II error occurs when a false null hypothesis is not rejected. For example‚ if a rejection region
