There is an inverse relationship between the probabilities of Type I and Type II errors; as one increases,the other decreases,and vice versa.
Inverse Relationship
A relationship between two variables in which an increase in the value of one variable leads to a decrease in the value of the other variable, and vice versa.
Type I Error
The mistaken dismissal of a correct null hypothesis, referred to as a "false positive."
Type II Error
A statistical mistake made by failing to reject a false null hypothesis, also known as a false negative.
- Analyze the association between significance thresholds and varieties of errors.
- Acknowledge the implications of modifying the level of significance on the probability of Type I and Type II errors occurrence.
