Type I and Type II Errors

In hypothesis testing, two types of errors can occur: Type I error (false positive, rejecting a true null hypothesis) and Type II error (false negative, failing to reject a false null hypothesis). Formalized by Neyman and Pearson (1933), these errors are at the heart of statistical decision-making. The probability of Type I error is controlled by the significance level α (conventionally 0.05); the probability of Type II error is β, and power = 1 − β. Understanding and balancing these errors is critical for designing robust, reliable research.
