Population Mean Based on
Test Statistic Value and

 Lesson 1: Drawing Conclusion About Population Mean Based
on Test Statistic Value and Critical Region

The final step in testing hypothesis is to interpret the results or draw conclusions out
of the computed value. In this module, you will decide whether you reject or not the
null hypothesis.

Let us first recall the different terms related to hypothesis testing by answering the
following activity.

Test Statistics: z-test

Sample size 100

(n):
Level of Significance: 0.05

Type of Test: Right-tailed test

Critical Value: z = 1.875

 Critical Region: Look at the table on page 7

Test Statistics: t-test

Sample size 𝒏=𝟏𝟐

(n):
Level of Significance: 0.01

Type of Test: Left-tailed test

Critical Value: t = - 1.736

Decision: The computed t-value is greater than the t-

critical value at 𝛼 = 0.01 (i. e.−1.736 > −2.718.)
Since we have a left-tailed test, our conclusion is that we
fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Test Statistics: t-test

Sample size 𝒏=𝟐𝟔

(n):
Level of Significance: 0.025

Type of Test: Two-tailed test

Critical Value: t = 3.671

Decision: The absolute value of the computed t-value is greater than the
absolute of the critical t-value at 𝛼 = 0.025 (i.e. |3.671|> |2.485|). Therefore,
we reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion: We can conclude that there is enough evidence to reject the

claim of the government that P10,000 is the monthly expenses of a Filipino
family with four members.

(n):

Decision: The absolute value of the computed z-value is greater than the
absolute of the critical t-value at 𝛼 = 0.05 (i.e. |3.747|> |1.960|).
Therefore, we reject the null hypothesis.

Type of Test: Right-tailed test

Critical Value: z= 1.818 or

Decision: The absolute value of the computed z-value is less than the
absolute of the critical t-value at 𝛼 = 0.01 (i.e. |1.818| |2.326|).
Therefore, we fail reject the null hypothesis.
