Definitions:

Alternative Hypothesis

The hypothesis that there is a significant difference or effect, contrasting with the null hypothesis and indicating the presence of an observed effect.

Type II Error

A statistical mistake where a false null hypothesis is not rejected, meaning the test fails to observe a difference when in truth there is one.

Population Mean

The average value of a characteristic in a population, calculated by summing all the values and dividing by the number of values.

Significance Level

The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is actually true; a measure of the threshold for the likelihood of a Type I error.
