Question

Determine whether the following statement is true about p-value. when p-value is small, it means there is a small chance that the population proportion is the same as sample proportion.

a. true
b. false

Answer 1

True. When the p-value is small, it indicates that there is a small chance that the population proportion is the same as the sample proportion. A small p-value suggests that the observed data is unlikely under the assumption that there is no significant difference between the sample and population proportions.
