For details, first learn about linear regression... ruclips.net/video/nk2CQITm_eo/видео.html and then learn how it naturally extends to t-tests... ruclips.net/video/NF5_btOaCig/видео.html

      I'm not 100% sure I understand your question, but you could imagine using DNA and saying "the null is that these two samples are the same" and then showing that there are enough differences to reject that hypothesis.

    This is the first time I've heard of the null hypothesis defined as there being no difference between observations in test results. I always interpreted the null as the observations being due to randomness instead of being due to some causal relationship. This definition would be more in line with the p-value being the probability that the observations actually are random.
    Of course, I could just be super confused :P

    • @statquest
      @statquest  Год назад +1

      Another way to think of the null hypothesis is that all of the observations were randomly selected the same distribution (instead of two, distinct distributions). If all the observations came from the same distribution, then, in theory, there should be no, or relatively little, difference bean their estimated means.

    Great video however, I have a question.
    Throughtout the video, you used the phrase "random differences" for factors like Better diet, more exercise, (or may be some genetic mutation) which affect recovery time but are these factors really random ?
    These factors may be unknown to the experimenter but is it a good idea to consider them random ?
    I mean the phrase "Drug A may perform better than Drug B due to chance" doesn't make sense considering there would be deterministic reasons with mechanical explanations which would explain the action of the drugs

    • @statquest
      @statquest  10 месяцев назад +1

      I agree, statisticians use words like "random" and "error" in strange ways. However, in the language of statistics, "random" means "things we didn't factor into the model". Unfortunately, that's just the way they use the term and there's not much we can do about it.

    Great video, thanks! I completely understand what you said about us only being able to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis, but I have seen many published papers stating their main hypotheses to be "there is no difference between groups". They then state in the discussion "the results support our hypothesis" when the tests find no difference and claim that the intervention is equally helpful for different age groups, for example. Is this problematic? Should the peer review have said something? Should they have switched the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis somehow because the type I error becomes the type II error and vice versa? What would be the algorithm for doing such research when they want to prove that the intervention is as effective as the other one?

    • @statquest
      @statquest  2 года назад +1

      Without knowing all of the details, I would say it is very odd to say that the main hypothesis is the null and that a large p-value supports that. The reason it's odd is that there could be a million reasons why the p-value was large, some of which have nothing to do with the treatment (for example, it could be that someone just wrote the data down incorrectly).

    Hi Mr Starmer, the lecture overall is incredible. Im just stuck at one point where I think the explanation flow is not as smooth as others. I know, BY COMMON SENSE, that the recovery time difference when giving drug C and D the 2nd and 3rd time is different, but not enough to reject hypothesis 1. Can u give me perhaps a more detailed and scientific explanation about why we simply are not certain to claim hypothesis 1 is incorrect, even though it is different then the following 2nd and 3rd time? Like how do we know if it is very likely that the hypothesis can be rejected?

      Hypothesis testing is not commonly combined with machine learning, but you might use it if you wanted to be sure you selected the optimal algorithm. The hypothesis would be that both methods give the same results. If you rejected the hypothesis, you would know that one method was better than the other.

      We never "accept the null hypothesis" because there could because we can't differentiate between "there is no difference between drug A and drug B" and "someone made a huge mistake when handing out the drugs and gave everyone drug A". In both cases, the data will look similar.

    Hi, what is your hypothesis is that there is no difference between the two groups? I.e comparing anxiety in boys vs girls?

    • @statquest
      @statquest  4 месяца назад

      Generally speaking, the null hypothesis is that there is no difference and then we see if the data suggests that we reject that hypothesis.

      @@statquest Hey Josh, had a question
      As you mentioned about Rejecting the hypothesis and Fail to reject the hypothesis
      So does a hypothesis gets accepted also, if we get the same result as our hypothesis if we repeat the experiment?

    This was awesome.
    But, can you please make some video regarding GCN(Graph Convolution Network) in future?
    It would be nice to get some explanation from your perspective.

    Hi Josh,Thank you for the awesome video :)
    I'm slightly confused on how to frame null hypothesis for a given statement.
    For eg :A pizza place claims that their delivery time is 30 minutes or less than that on an avg.
    Now our null hypothesis will be "The delivery time is NOT less than or equal to 30 mins that is basically greater than 30 mins."
    Is this correct ?

      Preliminary data is like a pilot study or just a small experiment to get a general sense of what is going on. It's not a full scale study or full scale experiment.

    Is this a rule to say "no difference between things" when defining null hypothesis or can we also say "there is huge difference" as null hypothesis, if no then why?

    • @statquest
      @statquest  Год назад +1

      When we say "no difference", we can put a specific number on that, 0, and the null hypothesis works as expected. BAM! In contrast, what specific number do you want to put on a "huge difference"? 12? 317? In order to do a test, you have to use a specific number. And how do you know 12 is better than 317? If you watch this video carefully, you'll see why you can't say "there is a huge difference" and use that as an effective null hypothesis.
