Abstract

With the continuous development of science and technology and other fields in today's world, statistical analysis and research have become indispensable research methods in people's daily lives. Among these, hypothesis testing plays an important role in fields such as biology, medicine, and economics, and has significant effects in most scenarios. However, the suitability and effectiveness of different hypothesis testing methods vary depending on the context, often leading to different outcomes and levels of accuracy. This paper focuses on discussing various hypothesis testing methods in statistics, such as t-test, chi-square test, z-test, F-test, etc. In addition, this study analyzes various cases in real life and optimize and improve some hypothesis testing methods. Based on a review of existing literature, the study explores how traditional hypothesis testing determines statistical significance—where the null hypothesis is rejected if the test statistic falls within the rejection region. To improve and enhance the determination of the significance level, handle uncertainty, and increase the sample size, this paper proposes alternative methods such as NHST test, Bayesian test, big data sequential test, and failure rate hypothesis test from the perspectives of medicine and kinesiology.
