单选题

Which of the following statements of null and alternative hypotheses requires a two-tailed test?

【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】

Define a hypothesis, describe the steps of hypothesis testing, describe and interpret the choice of the null and alternative hypotheses, and distinguish between one-tailed and two-tailed tests of hypotheses.
A is correct. When the null and alternative hypotheses are of the form: H0 : θ = θ0 versus Ha : θ≠θ0 , the correct approach is to use a two-tailed test.
