Hypothesis testing is a statistical method used to determine whether a hypothesis about a population is likely to be true or not.
It involves formulating a null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis
A sample is taken from the population and data is collected
The data is analyzed using statistical tests to determine the probability of obtaining the observed results if the null hypothesis is true
If the probability is low...
The phrase 'we accept the null hypothesis' is not used because it implies the null hypothesis is true.
The null hypothesis is assumed to be true until proven otherwise
We can only reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis
Accepting the null hypothesis implies it is true, which is not necessarily the case
It depends on the context and purpose of the study.
Multiple hypothesis testing can increase the risk of false positives.
It may be necessary in certain fields such as genomics.
Adjusting for multiple comparisons can help control the false discovery rate.
Consider the cost-benefit of multiple testing correction.
Consult with a statistician to determine the appropriate approach.

A data-set and a linear regression model fitting it was shared with me. I was asked to run some specific statistical tests on it and to share the findings in the form of a report containing the codes, the results and the interpretation of the results.
I could chose to work in any coding environment, but I had to share the results in a way such that they can run my codes and confirm the results. I was given a week to submit but they were willing to extend the deadline if requested in advance.
