Interpretation

If the , then the

probability of observing a sample

that is is .

null hypothesis is true

1

proportion/mean

2

less than, greater than,at least as extreme as

p-hat p-value

4

3

High p-valueHigh likelihood of happening through natural sampling variation

Low p-value Low likelihood of happening through natural sampling variation

Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
