Q1: Research Hypothesis

Question 1

a tentative statement about the relationship between two or more variables

Answer 1

Hypothesis

Question 2

It is a specific and testable prediction on what you expect to happen with the variables in your study

Answer 2

Hypothesis

Question 3

it proposes a possible relationship between the independent variable (what the researcher changes) and the dependent variable (what the research
measures).

Answer 3

Hypothesis

Question 4

It is also described as an “educated guess” of what possibly the result would be of your research, which should be supported on existing theories and knowledge.

Answer 4

Hypothesis

Question 5

states a tentative answer to your research question that can be tested by further investigation in which you can support or refute it through scientific research methods such as data collection and statistical analysis.

Answer 5

Hypothesis

Question 6

It is the central concept of any investigation that converts research questions into predictions and incorporates elements such as variables, population, and the relationship between factors

Answer 6

Hypothesis

Question 7

7 Types of Research Hypothesis

Answer 7

Simple Hypothesis
Complex hypothesis
Empirical Hypothesis
Logical hypothesis
Statistical hypothesis
Null hypothesis
Alternative hypothesis

Question 8

is denoted with the symbol (H a ). It is an alternate statement expressed to be tested in order to generate the desired output when the empirical or working hypothesis is not accepted.

Answer 8

Alternative hypothesis

Question 9

is denoted with the symbol H o It exists when you consider that there is no relationship between the independent and dependent variables or that there is an insufficient amount of information to claim a scientific hypothesis

Answer 9

Null hypothesis

Question 10

an analysis of a portion of a population. It can be verified statistically. The variables in a statistical hypothesis can be transformed into quantifiable sub-variable to assess it statistically

Answer 10

Statistical hypothesis

Question 11

expresses explanation with limited evidence that can be verified logically. It reflects a relationship of the variables which are anchored based on logical phenomena.

Answer 11

Logical hypothesis

Question 12

is also called as the “working hypothesis.” It is presumed to explain certain facts and relationships of phenomena. It comes to life when a theory is being put to the test, using observation and experiment

Answer 12

Empirical Hypothesis

Question 13

From the name itself “working,” it would mean that it can be changed or replace anytime as soon as it is no longer supported or accepted base on the observation and experimentation being done. It is going through some trial and error and perhaps changing around those independent variables

Answer 13

Empirical Hypothesis

Question 14

reflects the relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable. It expresses a connection between two or more
independent variables and two or more dependent variables

Answer 14

Complex hypothesis

Question 15

a prediction of the relationship between two variables, the independent variable and the dependent variable. It shows a connection between one independent variable and a single dependent variable

Answer 15

Simple Hypothesis

Question 16

2 Classification of Hypothesis

Answer 16

Directional Hypothesis
Non-directional Hypothesis

Question 17

relates the relationship between the variables and
can also predict its nature

Answer 17

directional hypothesis

Question 18

It illustrates the direct association of the impact of the independent variable with the dependent variable, whether it is positively or negatively affected

Answer 18

directional hypothesis

Question 19

is used when there is no principle involved

Answer 19

Non-directional Hypothesis

Question 20

It is a premise that a relationship exists between two variables. However, the direction of the effect is not specifically determined

Answer 20

Non-directional Hypothesis

Question 21

This relationship is not specified as negative or positive

Answer 21

Non-directional Hypothesis

Question 22

Guidelines in Formulating Hypothesis

Answer 22

1. Before writing your specific hypothesis, spend more time researching about the topic you are interested in. Focus on information and previous studies related to your topic.
2. Your independent variable and dependent variable must be included in your hypothesis.
3. The relationship of your variables must be reflected in your hypothesis.
4. Your hypothesis should be simple and specific as possible.
5. Your hypothesis should be concise and comprises clear and simple language.
6. Your hypothesis should be testable without violating ethical standards.
7. Your hypothesis must be falsifiable. It means that your hypothesis can be proven wrong through experiments or empirical data.

Question 23

It means that your hypothesis can be proven wrong through experiments or empirical data

Answer 23

falsifiable
