Unit IX - EDUC 201: Testing Statistical Significance
A research hypothesis states the expected relationship between two variables. It may be
stated in general terms, or it may include dimensions of direction and magnitude. For
example,
General: The length of the job training program is related to the rate of job placement of
trainees.
Direction: The longer the training program, the higher the rate of job placement of
trainees.
Magnitude: Longer training programs will place twice as many trainees into jobs as
shorter programs.
