Which of the following is a type of hypothesis ?

  • A.One hypothesis
  • B.Absolute hypothesis
  • C.Abstract hypothesis
  • D.Null hypothesis

Answer: D

The type of hypothesis is the null hypothesis.

The null hypothesis states that there is no relationship or difference between the variables studied, for example that two diets have the same effect on weight gain. It is the hypothesis that statistical tests examine, and it is set against the alternative (research) hypothesis.

Other recognised types are descriptive, relational, directional and non-directional hypotheses. 'One', 'absolute' and 'abstract' hypotheses are not types of hypothesis in research methodology.
