Let\'s do something simple. In this country, we have a well-known legal principle: innocent until proven gulity. Once you have gained knowledge of hypothesis testing and the types of errors, please, respond to the following questions (the 2nd/3rd are completely open ended). How does this relate to hypothesis testing? (Note which definitions matter here). What is desirable/undesirable about the innocent until proven guilty approach to statistics? Another famous saying: There are three types of lies: lies, damn lies, and statistics. From the perspective of statistics, what kind of lies could a person tell, and what makes these lies worthy of being the worst type of lie? How does that relate to the ideas in this chapter, especially the requirements/assumptions in performing hypothesis tests?
