A model for stating hypothesis for experimental studies is as under:
Ss Who get X do better
on Y than
Ss Who do not get X
Whereas Ss= Subjects
X =
Independent variable
Y =
Dependent variable
- Testing the Hypothesis
The
evidence of the work of hypothesis lies in its abilities to meet test of its
validity. The purpose of testing a
hypothesis is to determine the probability that it is supported by fact.
Because a hypothesis is a general expectation about the relationship between
variables there is an extremely large number of instances under which it can be
tested, and it would be impractical to attempt to gain support in all of these
instances. A hypothesis is tested through the determination of:
·
Sample
·
Instrument
·
Design
·
Procedures
·
Collection of data
·
Analysis of data
·
Confirmation or disconfirmation of hypothesis
