Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rejecting H0 only indicates that there is evidence against it, but it does not provide direct support for a research hypothesis. Additional analysis is needed to determine the extent of the evidence and the validity of the research hypothesis. Option B is incorrect as it overstates the implication of rejecting H0. Option C is incorrect as the significance level α can be set at any level, not just .01. Option D is incorrect as rejecting H0 correctly is not a Type II error.
