[From Rick Marken (2006.12.15.1810)]
I have to learn to watch my D's and C's.
I said:
So I would re-write your version of PCT hypothesis testing as follows:
PCT:
Null Hypothesis: There is a relationship between the IV (Disturbance) and the HDV (Hypothetical Controlled Variable).
Alternative Hypothesis: There is a no relationship between the IV and the HDV.
A low correlation coefficient (statistically not significant) in which the IV and HCV would be uncorrelated (r = 0.0) would lead to rejection of the null hypothesis.
Of course, wherever I wrote HDV it should be HCV.
Sorry;-(
Best
Rick
