The document discusses concepts related to hypothesis testing such as Type I and Type II errors, significance levels, sample size, degrees of freedom.

A Type I error is committed when you reject a null hypothesis that is true.

It means that if the null hypothesis is true, you don't reject it 1% of the time.
