Question

If I hypothesized that individuals who worked longer hours were more likely to suffer from stress disorders and the statistical analysis resulted in a statistical value (the exact statistic is irrelevant in this case) of 7.34, I would conclude

		That Ha is supported
		That Ho is supported
		That this is an example of a Type I error
		That the alpha level is too high
		None of the above

Answer 1

That Ha is supported

Since it is observed that the test statistic = 7.34, it is then concluded that the null hypothesis is rejected.

Using the P-value approach: The p-value is p=0, and it is concluded that the null hypothesis is rejected. Since the null is rejected, we have sufficient evidence in support of the alternative hypothesis.
