| 11. | A type I error occurs when convicting an innocent person ( a miscarriage of justice ).
|
| 12. | This probability is known as type I error.
|
| 13. | Therefore it is the probability of making a type I error given that the null is true.
|
| 14. | Of the 900 incorrect hypotheses, 5 % or 45 will be accepted because of type I errors.
|
| 15. | Martin D . Weiss, president of the Weiss Group, got high marks for avoiding Type I error.
|
| 16. | A type I error is a false positive, thinking that an effect is there, when it is not.
|
| 17. | The reduction of the type I error rate has been labelled as the " conservatism " of classical methods.
|
| 18. | Statistical methodologists have argued that QCA's strong assumptions render its findings both fragile and prone to type I error.
|
| 19. | Testing a hypothesis suggested by the data can very easily result in false positives ( type I errors ).
|
| 20. | Thus, FDR procedures have greater type I errors, i . e ., rejecting null hypotheses that are actually true.
