Relationship between p-value and critical regions?

\n" ); document.write( "Right-tail test p-value.
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "If the critical region is a right tail with
\n" ); document.write( "area = alpha, then the p-value is the right
\n" ); document.write( "tail of the test statistic.
\n" ); document.write( "If p-value < alpha, reject Ho.
\n" ); document.write( "If p-value > alpha, fail to reject Ho.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Similarly for a Left-tail test.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "For a 2-tail test.
\n" ); document.write( "Alpha is split evenly between a left tail
\n" ); document.write( "and a right tail.
\n" ); document.write( "The p-value may have a left tail or a right tail.
\n" ); document.write( "If 2*tail of test stat is < alpha, reject Ho.
\n" ); document.write( "If 2*tail of test stat is > alpha, fail to reject Ho.
