stress-proneness of children in completing school projects, the hypothesis
formulated is that ‘child rearing practices do influence stress-proneness’. At

null hypothesis is rejected at 0.01 level of significance. What decision may be
warranted in respect of the research hypothesis ? (1) The research hypothesis will also be
rejected. (2) The
research hypothesis will be accepted.

rejected. (4) No decision can be taken
in respect of the research hypothesis.
