Incorporating the Subjective Probabilities in
the Hypothesis Testing Process
This site is a part of the JavaScript E-labs learning objects for decision making. Other JavaScript in this series are categorized under different areas of applications in the MENU section on this page.
At the planning stage of a statistical hypothesis testing, both parties, namely the "producer", and the "consumer" agree on the testing process prior to taking sampling. In most cases, the consumer has some prior experience; therefore, he/she might be able to make a better decision by incorporating his/her subjective probabilities regarding trustfulness of the null hypothesis. The following JavaScript compute the total net profit, as a performance measure indicating how "good" is the decision-maker in deciding about the input parameters of the decision process.
The aim of applying this JavaScript is at improving your decision making process with a desirable net profit.
