Definitions:

Level of Significance

In hypothesis testing, the threshold below which the null hypothesis is rejected, often denoted by alpha.

Rejected

A term used, often in statistical analysis, to indicate that a hypothesis has been dismissed or disproved based on data analysis.

Null Hypothesis

A hypothesis in statistical testing that proposes there is no significance difference or effect and that any observed difference is due to chance.

P-value

The probability of observing the tested result, or one more extreme, if the null hypothesis is true.
