A type II error, also known as an error of the second kind, occurs when the null hypothesis is false, but erroneously fails to be rejected. It is failing to assert what is present, a miss. A type II error may be compared with a so-called false negative (where an actual 'hit' was disregarded by the test and seen as a 'miss') in a test checking for a single condition with a definitive result of true or false. A Type II error is committed when we fail to believe a truth.

"the null hypothesis refers to a general statement or default position that there is no relationship between two measured phenomena." LOL

Why re-invent the wheel for every brain-dead question that’s posted on here?

 

No doubt, BJ’s cut and paste skills are paramount, but there is one decisive difference between hers and yours: she actually understands the concepts in the texts of what she pasted.

 

Keep on guard Britney! Don’t let the moronic, knuckle-draggers --in this case, a rude, moronic, knuckle-dragger give you CDD!
