HYPOTHESIS TESTING PROCEDURE STEP 1. Establish the Hypothesis a.) Null Hypothesis Ho: = b.) Alternative Hypothesis Ha: STEP 2. Choose a Significance Level a = STEP 3. Plan the Test a.) Choose the Test Statistic (formula) b.) Determine the Rejection Region Z or t 0 F or c2 0 STEP 4. DATA BLOCK Collect data and Calculate test statistic STEP 5. Draw conclusion STEP 6. Estimate the parameter of interest and determine Confidence Interval
