Sammanfattning	Bayesian hypothesis testing research is a quantitative design in which competing hypotheses are evaluated by updating prior beliefs with observed data to produce posterior probabilities and Bayes factors. Unlike frequentist null-hypothesis significance testing, it quantifies the relative evidence for each hypothesis, supports optional stopping, and allows accumulation of evidence across studies without inflating Type I error rates.	Hypothesis testing research is a quantitative design in which the investigator derives one or more explicit, falsifiable propositions from theory, translates them into a null hypothesis (H0) and an alternative hypothesis (H1), collects empirical data, and then applies an inferential statistical test to decide whether the evidence is sufficient to reject H0. The approach is the dominant paradigm for confirmatory science across the social, behavioral, health, and natural sciences.
