MCQs Hypothesis Testing 1

Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs on Hypothesis Testing and Estimation) from Statistical Inference for the preparation of exam and different statistical job tests in Government/ Semi-Government or Private Organization sectors. These tests are also helpful in getting admission to different colleges and Universities. The Estimation and Hypothesis Testing Quiz will help the learner to understand the related concepts and enhance the knowledge too.

1. The t distributions are

 
 
 
 

2. Which of the following is a true statement, for comparing the t distributions with standard normal,

 
 
 
 

3. The critical value of a test statistic is determined from

 
 
 
 

4. For t distribution, increasing the sample size, the effect will be on

 
 
 
 

5. $1 – \alpha$ is the probability of

 
 
 
 

6. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is a test for equality of

 
 
 
 

7. A parameter is a ————- quantity

 
 
 
 

8. Condition for applying the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) which approximates the sampling distribution of the mean with a normal distribution is?

 
 
 
 

9. What is the probability of a type II error when $\alpha=0.05$ ?

 
 
 
 

10. Herbicide A has been used for years in order to kill a particular type of weed. An experiment is to be conducted in order to see whether a new herbicide, Herbicide B, is more effective than Herbicide A. Herbicide A  will continue to be used unless there is sufficient evidence that Herbicide B is more effective. The alternative hypothesis in this problem is

 
 
 
 

11. If we reject the null hypothesis, we might be making

 
 
 
 

12. Which of the following is an assumption underlying the use of the t-distributions?

 
 
 
 

Most of the MCQs on this page are covered from Estimate and Estimation, Testing of Hypothesis, Parametric and Non-Parametric tests, etc.
