A reseаrch hypоthesis is а suppоsitiоn or аssumption advanced as a basis for reasoning or argument, or as a guide to experimental investigation. In a classic sense, hypotheses are simply “If…; then…” sentences that can be categorized in certain logical forms, such as no difference, associated difference, directionality of difference, and magnitude of difference. Below is an example of a hypothesis from a fictitious study: "If Calhoun County EMA increases the number of preparedness-related public service announcements, then more families will be prepared for a severe weather event." From this, discuss what you believe to be the dependent and independent variables in this study, propose your measuring strategies and methods, craft its statistical hypothesis (including a null and an alternative hypotheses), and discuss the importance and meanings of using the results from a statistical test to reject the null hypothesis.
