A researcher expects a treatment to increase the scores for individuals in a population. The treatment is evaluated using a one-tailed hypothesis test, and the test produces z = +2.40 . Based on this result, what is the correct statistical decision?
a. The researcher should reject the null hypothesis with = .05 but not with = .01.
b. The researcher should reject the null hypothesis with either = .05 or = .01.
c. The researcher should fail to reject H0 with either = .05 or = .01.
d. Cannot answer without additional information
