One May Wish to Test Is Not True $H _ { 0 }$

question 9

Short Answer

One may wish to test $H _ { 0 } : p _ { 1 } = \theta ^ { 2 } , p _ { 2 } = 2 \theta ( 1 - \theta ) , p _ { 3 } = ( 1 - \theta ) ^ { 2 } \text { versus } H _ {\pm } : H _ { 0 }$ is not true. The null hypothesis is__________ hypothesis because knowing that $H _ { 0 }$ is true does not uniquely determine the cell probabilities and expected cell counts but only their general form.
