Evaluating Hypotheses in Light of Evidence (P-Values)

In this conclusion to our 4-part mini-series on hypothesis testing, we'll learn how we make the final decision as to whether we think there is an effect (i.e., in which we would reject the null hypothesis) or not (i.e., in which we would fail to reject the null hypothesis). This decision will require that we understand how to interpret p-values and that we know how to compare our p-value to our alpha level (that is, to our standard of evidence).
