Question

What is the best way to show and identify the Ho and H1 of mental illness with explaining what “significance” is in a general sense and in the chosen article. discuss the p-value.

Answer 1

The Null Hypothesis

The null hypothesis reflects that there will be no observed effect in our experiment. In a mathematical formulation of the null hypothesis, there will typically be an equal sign. This hypothesis is denoted by H0.

Alternative Hypothesis=

The alternative or experimental hypothesis reflects that there will be an observed effect for our experiment. In a mathematical formulation of the alternative hypothesis, there will typically be an inequality, or not equal to symbol. This hypothesis is denoted by either Ha or by H1.

Significance.

In normal English, "significant" means important, while in Statistics "significant" means probably true (not due to chance). A research finding may be true without being important. When statisticians say a result is "highly significant" they mean it is very probably true. They do not (necessarily) mean it is highly important.

What Is P-Value?

In statistics, the p-value is the probability of obtaining the observed results of a test, assuming that the null hypothesis is correct. It is the level of marginal significance within a statistical hypothesis testrepresenting the probability of the occurrence of a given event. The p-value is used as an alternative to rejection points to provide the smallest level of significance at which the null hypothesis would be rejected. A smaller p-value means that there is stronger evidence in favor of the alternative hypothesis.
