Most Essential Topic # 11: Hypothesis Testing Using Correlation Analysis

Lesson 1: Correlation Analysis

Prerequisite Content
Fundamentals of Hypothesis Testing
Knowledge:

Prerequisite Skill: Analytical skills to check the understanding of students on the fundamental concepts of hypothesis testing

Prerequisite Assessment: 5-item quiz

Direction: Write the letter of the correct answer based on the choices given below.

A – If both statements are true.

B – If both statements are false.
C – If statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false.
D – If statement 1 is false and statement 2 is true.

1. Statement 1: The null hypothesis always shows inequality.

Statement 2: The null hypothesis is the hypothesis to be tested.

2. Statement 1: If the test statistic is greater than the critical value, then reject the null hypothesis.
Statement 2: If the critical value is greater than the test statistic, then fail to reject the null hypothesis.

3. Statement 1: The first step in hypothesis testing is determining the level of significance.
Statement 2: The last step in hypothesis testing is formulating the hypothesis.
PRIVATE EDUCATION ASSISTANCE COMMITTEE
4. Statement 1: A level of significance of 5% means 95% confidence level.
Statement 2: The level of significance can be a negative percentage.

5. Statement 1: Hypothesis plays a significant role in hypothesis testing.

Statement 2: There are 4 types of hypotheses in hypothesis testing.

Null Hypothesis
✔ states that the “null” condition exists; that is there is nothing new happening, the old theory is still true, the old standard is correct, and the system is in control

✔ A claim about a population characteristic that is initially assumed to be true.

✔ It is denoted by Ho,

✔ It is the hypothesis to be tested. It has a statement of equality, such as ≥, ≤ or =.

Alternative Hypothesis
✔ States that the new theory is true, there are new standards, the system is out-of-control, and/or something is happening

✔ Also defined as the competing claim.

✔ It denoted by Ha

✔ It is the hypothesis that has no statement of equality, such as >, < or ≠.

Example:
A medical trial is conducted to test whether or not a new drug changes the mean pulse rate of patients. It is known that the mean pulse rate of the patients is 75 beats per
minute.
H o : The drug does not change the mean pulse rate of the patients H o : μ=75
PRIVATE EDUCATION ASSISTANCE COMMITTEE
H a : The drug changes the mean pulse rate of the patients H a : μ ≠75

A school reports an average grade of 84 among its currently enrolled Senior High School students. Some parents believe that this is an underestimate of the actual average.
H o : The average grade of currently enrolled Senior High School students is equal to 84. H o : μ=84
H a : The average grade of currently enrolled Senior High School students is greater than 84. H a : μ>8 4

Introduction
In this lesson, the students will learn about correlation analysis, its meaning, and when to use it to solve or address a problematic situation. They will also be equipped to
conduct hypothesis testing to determine the relationship between the two variables. They will learn to solve the relationship between the two variables manually, or using a
calculator, or statistical software (Jamovi). They will organize and present the data and interpret the results. Thus, it will enable the students to think critically by formulating
good and valid arguments to make sound decisions/judgments.

The lesson will approximately run for 120 minutes and if the need arises the teacher can be reached through e-mail or using the contact number 09xxxxxxxxx.

Synthesis

In this lesson, the students learned how to explore the association of variables by correlating the given data manually and by using statistical software (Jamovi) following the steps in
hypothesis testing using correlation analysis. Also, the students were equipped to measure the degree of association between the two variables and learned how to analyze and
interpret the results. Thus, developed the students’ critical thinking by formulating good and valid arguments to make sound decisions/judgments.

RUA of a Student’s Learning

In this activity, the students can work individually, by pair, or as a group of three members and interpret the result in written form or a video
recording.

Answer the following questions carefully.

1. How do you understand correlation analysis and state when to use this statistical tool?
You need to perform a task using the given data below.

2. A. Using the hypothetical/dummy data above, conduct a hypothesis test to see if there is a significant relationship between weight and the time spent exercising. Use a 5% level of
significance.
B. Using the hypothetical/dummy data above, conduct a hypothesis test to see if there is a significant relationship between weight and sleeping time. Use a 5% level of significance.
C. State the implications of the results on you.

3. As a student, what real-life situations can you give that use correlation analysis? Give at least two.
4. Provide a hypothetical or empirical data from one of the real-life situations you have identified in number 3 above. And conduct a
hypothesis test if there is a significant relationship between the variables you have identified. Use level of significance of 0.05.

Post – lesson Remediation Activity

The teacher will provide feedback on the outputs submitted by the students and conduct a tutorial session as the need arises. Then, give another similar activity
to capture or achieve the target competencies and skills of the lesson.
