where:

zcom = z-test statistic for proportion

𝑝̂ = sample proportion (𝑛)

p = hypothesized value of the population proportion

n = sample size or the number of observations in the sample

q =1–p

Illustrative Example:

1. Determine the value of Zcom given the following information:

p = 0.32

Sample Size: n = 120

2. The computed value does not fall in the rejection region. ____________

4. The test statistic falls in the critical region. ________

8 SDOIN_CORE_Q3_Statistics_Module17
 What is It

In drawing conclusions, there are two different approaches that you may
apply: the critical z-approach (computed z-value) and the P-value approach.

In applying the first approach which is determining the critical value (which
you were already taught in the previous modules), you need to consider the following:
a. Null and Alternative Hypotheses;
b. Level of Significance (α);
c. Computed Test Statistic, Critical Value (including rejection region); and
d. Decision (whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis (Ho).

Determine if the test statistic falls in the rejection region. If it does, reject the null
hypothesis. If it does not, do not reject the null hypothesis.
● If the computed z-statistic (zcom) is > or < the tabular value (ztab), reject the null
hypothesis (Ho).
● If the computed z-statistic (zcom) falls in the rejecti

Using the Areas Under the Normal

Curve Table, the critical value is
-2.326 at α = 0.01 level. There is a
negative sign in the value due to the
direction of the alternative hypothesis.

4. Decision (whether to reject or fail to Since the computed test statistic (zcom)

region, fail to reject the null
hypothesis (Ho).
● on region, reject the null hypothesis (Ho).
● If the computed z-statistic (zcom) does not fall in the rejection region, fail to
reject the null hypothesis (Ho).

Illustrative Example:

p-VALUE APPROACH

What is p-value?
In critical value approach, a test statistic is compared with a critical value.
However, in p-value approach (short for probability value), probabilities or areas are
compared. P-value measures the consistency of the sample statistics with the null
hypothesis. High P-values mean that sample results are consistent with a true null
hypothesis while low P-values are not consistent. If the P value is small enough, we
can conclude that the sample is so incompatible with the null hypothesis. Therefore,
we can reject the null hypothesis for the entire population.

p-value approach uses the following basic procedures:

1. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H a.
2. Set the level of significance α.
3. Calculate the test statistic.
4. Calculate the p-value.

10 SDOIN_CORE_Q3_Statistics_Module17
 5. Make a decision. Check whether to reject the null hypothesis by comparing p-
value to α.
● If the p-value < α, then reject Ho. Otherwise, do not reject Ho
NOTE:
Conclusions are answers in sentence form which include: 1) whether there is
enough evidence or not (based on the decision); 2) the level of significance; and 3)
whether the original claim is supported or rejected.
Conclusions are based on the original claim which may be the null or
alternative hypothesis. The decisions are always based on the null hypothesis.

 Just like in puzzles, you need to think of different ways on how you will be
able to solve it. Same with solving problems involving test of hypotheses on
population proportions, you need to follow important steps in order to arrive at the
correct answer.

Five (5) steps in solving problems for a test of hypothesis on the population
proportion.

STEP 1. HYPOTHESES: State the null and alternative hypotheses (either in

sentence/statement form or in symbols).

STEP 2. LEVEL OF SIGNIFICANCE (𝑎): Choose a level of significance like = 0.01 level.

STEP 3. TEST STATISTIC: Calculate the appropriate test statistic.

STEP 4. CRITICAL VALUE/P-VALUE: Determine the critical value or p-value.

STEP 5. DECISION/CONCLUSION: The decision will be either to reject or fail to

reject the null hypothesis (Ho). Draw your conclusion about the population
proportion based on the test statistic value and the rejection region.
● If the computed z-statistic (zcom) is > or < the tabular/critical value (ztab),
reject the null hypothesis (Ho).
● If the computed z-statistic(zcom) falls in the rejection region, reject the
null hypothesis (Ho).
● If the computed z-statistic(zcom) does not fall in the rejection region, fail
to reject the null hypothesis (Ho).

The principal claims that 30% of Grade 8 students stay in the playground after
their classes. A survey among 500 Grade 8 students revealed that 150 of them stay
in the playground after classes. Use 95% confidence to conduct a test of proportions.
