Definitions:

Null Hypothesis

A default hypothesis that there is no significant difference or effect, tested against to determine the likelihood of the alternative hypothesis.

One-Tail Test

A statistical test in which the region of rejection is on only one side of the sampling distribution, used to determine if a parameter is greater than or less than a certain value.

Two-Tail

Describes tests or intervals in statistics that consider extreme values in both tails of the distribution to test hypotheses or compute confidence intervals.

P-Value

The probability of observing data at least as extreme as the data actually observed, under the assumption that the null hypothesis is true.
