74 Hypothesis testing Worked example 4

About this lesson
This video demonstrates how to conduct a one-tailed negative hypothesis test using the p-value approach in econometrics. We explore the economic question of whether higher taxes reduce hours worked, specifically looking for a negative effect. The process involves stating the null and alternative hypotheses, calculating the T statistic, and determining the p-value to make a decision about rejecting the null hypothesis. Understanding the direction of the alternative hypothesis is crucial for accurately interpreting the results and making informed conclusions based on the data.
