Type I and II errors Mistakenly rejecting the null hypothesis is a type 1 error. These errors are not avoidable and are part of statistical testing‚ but we can lessen the occurrence by setting the significance at a lower level. However‚ by setting the significance level lower; let us say .001‚ we then increase the chance of type 2 errors. Failing to correctly reject the null hypothesis creates a type 2 error‚ this is because; according to Aron (2009) “with an extreme significance level like

Experimental Errors and Uncertainty No physical quantity can be measured with perfect certainty; there are always errors in any measurement. This means that if we measure some quantity and‚ then‚ repeat the measurement‚ we will almost certainly measure a different value the second time. How‚ then‚ can we know the “true” value of a physical quantity? The short answer is that we can’t. However‚ as we take greater care in our measurements and apply ever more refined experimental methods‚ we can reduce
