3(f). Hypothesis Testing
A hypothesis can be defined as a tentative assumption that is made for the purpose of empirical scientific testing. A hypothesis becomes a theory of science when repeated testing produces the same conclusion. In most cases, hypothesis testing involves the following structured sequence of steps. The first step is the formulation of a null ...
Hypotheses: Types, Levels and Functions
Levels of Hypothesis 3. Functions 4. Testing. There are several different kinds of hypotheses used in social and/or geographical analysis, studies and research. However, the primary types of hypotheses are: (1) Research Hypotheses, (2) Null Hypotheses, (3) Scientific Hypotheses, and. (4) Statistical Hypotheses.
1.2.4: Geography and the Scientific Method
The scientific method consists of systematic observation, formulation, testing and revision of hypotheses. If a hypothesis withstands the scrutiny of repeated experimentation and review it may be elevated to a theory. Theories may undergo revision as new data and research methods are improved. Figure 1.2.4.1 1.2.4. 1: The Scientific Method.

12.2.2 A better approach: a Monte Carlo test. The Monte Carlo technique involves three steps: First, we postulate a process-our null hypothesis, H o H o. For example, we hypothesize that the distribution of Walmart stores is consistent with a completely random process (CSR).

The null hypothesis therefore serves as a means of allowing geographers to draw conclusions when data, by its nature,cannot provide absolute truths. For example, geographical theory suggests that the bedload of a river should decrease in size with distance from the source of the river. Therefore, a sensible positive or alternative hypothesis

2.3: Scientific Method
To support or refute a hypothesis, the scientist must collect data. A great deal of logic and effort goes into designing tests to collect data so the data can answer scientific questions. Data is usually collected by experiment or observation. Sometimes improvements in technology will allow new tests to better address a hypothesis.
Module 5: Introduction to Hypothesis Testing
Hypothesis Testing. Hypothesis testing is a systematic procedure for deciding whether the results of a research study, which examines a sample, support a particular theory or practical innovation, which applies to a population. The type of hypothesis testing done in much of the social sciences is called Null Hypothesis Significance Testing (NHST).

In many ways, two-tailed hypothesis testing follows directly from the concept of confidence intervals to which you've already been introduced, so we're going to build on that in order to cover the following: Three illustrative spatial examples that help ground our work and bring the concepts to life. They are: 1) deciding whether an ...
The Use of the Term 'Hypothesis' in Geography
In geography the term hypothesis seems to be gaining popularity. A survey of the Annals of the Association of American Geographers, Ec-onomic Geography, and The Geographical Re-view in 1970 revealed that twenty percent of the articles reporting on empirical research made reference to the testing of hypotheses. In

PDF Introduction to Hypothesis Testing
8.2 FOUR STEPS TO HYPOTHESIS TESTING The goal of hypothesis testing is to determine the likelihood that a population parameter, such as the mean, is likely to be true. In this section, we describe the four steps of hypothesis testing that were briefly introduced in Section 8.1: Step 1: State the hypotheses. Step 2: Set the criteria for a decision.

Data Analysis
Spearman's Rank Correlation is a statistical test to test whether there is a significant relationship between two sets of data. The Spearman's Rank Correlation test can only be used if there are at least 10 (ideally at least 15-20) pairs of data. There are 3 steps to take when using the Spearman's Rank Correlation Test. Step 1.
