Question 1118050: Confidence in recall differs depending on the level of stress.
Recall for participants in high-stress conditions will deteriorate over time.
Boys will have higher levels of confidence than girls.
for each hypothesis listed above, indicate:
Describe how a Type I error might occur, given the context of the assignment. Describe how a Type II error might occur, given the context of the assignment (i.e., if my hypothesis was that women had higher levels of empathy than men, a Type I error might occur if I found significant results with women scoring higher on empathy than me, when, in the general population that is not the case; a Type II error might occur if I found no differences in empathy between men and women when, in the general population women score higher on empathy than men).
Whether the appropriate analysis would be a one-tailed test or a two-tailed test

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Confidence in recall differs depending on the level of stress.
Recall for participants in high-stress conditions will deteriorate over time.
Boys will have higher levels of confidence than girls.
for each hypothesis listed above, indicate:
Ho:: b-g <= 0
Ha:: b-g > 0 (claim)
Type I Error:: Reject Ho though it is true.
Type II Error:: Accept Ho though it is true.
Describe how a Type I error might occur, given the context of the assignment.
If boys actually have less confidence in their recall then girls and
you reject Ho you are making a Type I Error
-----
If boys do not have less confidence in their recall then girls and
you fail to reject Ho you are making a Type II Error.
