You have a one-sided hypothesis test with alpha level 0.05 and p-value of 0.04. Which of the statements below is false? The rejection area at the tail is 0.05. In this example, the p-value would be describing the likelihood of this sample (or a more extreme one) occurring if the null hypothesis was true, in two directions. The outcome of the test would change if the test was two-sided instead of one-sided because that would mean each tail would be assigned half of alpha only. A higher value of alpha would not have changed the outcome of the test. A higher value of p-value would have changed the outcome of the test.
