Mcqs of Hypothesis

This document contains 20 multiple choice questions about statistical hypotheses. The questions cover key concepts like: 1) Definitions of null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, and statistical hypothesis. 2) Classifications of hypotheses as simple or composite. 3) Types of hypothesis tests as one-tailed or two-tailed. 4) Errors like Type I and Type II errors and levels of significance. 5) Key terms involved in hypothesis testing like test statistics, critical values, rejection regions.

MCQS OF HYPOTHESIS

Submitted by: MS-PT-TSE-11 & Ms- PT- ENE-05


1
A statement about a population developed for the purpose of testing is called:
(a) Hypothesis (b) Hypothesis testing (c) Level of significance (d) Test-statistic

2
Any hypothesis which is tested for the purpose of rejection under the assumption that it is true is
called:
(a) Null hypothesis (b) Alternative hypothesis (c) Statistical hypothesis (d) Composite hypothesis

3
Any statement whose validity is tested on the basis of a sample is called:
(a) Null hypothesis (b) Alternative hypothesis (c) Statistical hypothesis (b) Simple hypothesis

4
A statement that is accepted if the sample data provide sufficient evidence that the null hypothesis is false is
called:
(a) Simple hypothesis (b) Composite hypothesis (c) Statistical hypothesis (d) Alternative hypothesis

5
The alternative hypothesis is also called:
(a) Null hypothesis (b) Statistical hypothesis (c) Research hypothesis (d) Simple hypothesis

6
A hypothesis that specifies all the values of parameter is called:
(a) Simple hypothesis (b) Composite hypothesis (c) Statistical hypothesis (d) None of the above
7
A hypothesis may be classified as:
(a) Simple (b) Composite (c) Null (d) All of the above

8
The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true is called:
(a) Level of confidence (b) Level of significance (c) Power of the test (d) Difficult to tell

9
If the critical region is located equally in both sides of the sampling distribution of test-statistic, the test is
called:
(a) One tailed (b) Two tailed (c) Right tailed (d) Left tailed

10
The choice of one-tailed test and two-tailed test depends upon:
(a) Null hypothesis (b) Alternative hypothesis (c) None of these (d) Composite hypotheses

11
Test of hypothesis Ho: µ = 50 against H1: µ > 50 leads to:
(a) Left-tailed test (b) Right-tailed test (c) Two-tailed test (d) Difficult to tell
12
Test of hypothesis Ho: µ = 20 against H1: µ < 20 leads to:
(a) Right one-sided test (b) Left one-sided test (c) Two-sided test (d) All of the above
13
A rule or formula that provides a basis for testing a null hypothesis is called:
(a) Test-statistic (b) Population statistic (c) Both of these (d) None of the above

14
The probability associated with committing type-I error is:
(a) β (b) α (c) 1 – β (d) 1 – α

15
A failing student is passed by an examiner, it is an example of:
(a) Type-I error (b) Type-II error (c) Unbiased decision (d) Difficult to tell

16
A passing student is failed by an examiner, it is an example of:
(a) Type-I error (b) Type-II error (c) Best decision (d) All of the above

17
1 – α is the probability associated with:
(a) Type-I error (b) Type-II error (c) Level of confidence (d) Level of significance

18
Area of the rejection region depends on:
(a) Size of α (b) Size of β (c) Test-statistic (d) Number of values

19
Size of critical region is known as:
(a) β (b) 1 - β (c) Critical value (d) Size of the test

20
