Stating the null and alternative hypotheses correctly is crucial to using data to answer research questions. Stating it in words and using statistical notation is also vital to make sure everyone is clear on what needs to be tested in order to answer the research question. But is there only one correct way to state in words the null and alternative hypotheses to address the health question you are studying?
For your initial post state in words the null and alternative hypotheses for your chosen health question. Then present both hypotheses again using statistical notation. Next, discuss if there is another way that you can word your hypotheses and maintain the same meaning as your original wording, and present this alternative wording.
In response to your peers, explain why you think their original hypothesis statements are correct or not, the worded version and the statistical notation version, and whether the worded version matches the statistical notation version. Explain your reasoning. Then, see if you agree with their alternative wording and propose a third, worded version containing the same meaning.
