Solution
It is the \"DIRECTIONAL HYPOTHESIS \" which reflects a diference between the direction of the groups and the direction is specified by this type of the hypothesis.
Examples : if some set of students took a training course for the national exam and one researcher wants to know whether the trained students scored above the national average of 960.so here directional hypothesis can be used because the researcher specifically hypothesizing scores of the students.
H0 : S = 960 Vs H1 : s1 > 960
here \"s\" is the average score where S1 is the score of trained students.
