Question

Pairs of P-values and significance levels, α, are given. For each pair, state whether the observed P-value would lead to rejection of H₀ at the given significance level.

(a)    P-value = 0.062, α = 0.05

reject H₀

do not reject H₀    

(b)    P-value = 0.002, α = 0.001

reject H₀

do not reject H₀    

(c)    P-value = 0.492, α = 0.05

reject H₀

do not reject H₀    

(d)    P-value = 0.062, α = 0.10

reject H₀

do not reject H₀    

(e)    P-value = 0.041, α = 0.01

reject H₀

do not reject H₀    

(f)    P-value = 0.276, α = 0.10

reject H₀

do not reject H₀
