Do we reject/accept the null Ho??????????

Question

if the P value is significant, do we accept or reject the null?

Answer 1

In statistical hypothesis testing, the p-value is the probability of obtaining a value of the test statistic at least as extreme as the one that was actually observed, given that the null hypothesis is true. The fact that p-values are based on this assumption is crucial to their correct interpretation.

Generally, one rejects the null hypothesis if the p-value is smaller than or equal to the significance level, often represented by the Greek letter alpha. In other words, if your p-value is smaller (or equal) than your desired level of significance, you would reject the null hypothesis (e.g., alpha = 0.05 and p-value = 0.04).
