   Question

   What are we testing when we look at the p-value of a b-coefficient in a linear regression model?

   
   
   1. TRUE: Assuming that the zero hypothesis (H₀) is TRUE in the population, how (un)probable is it to obtain this observed t value (or an even more extreme t value)? If it is highly unlikely, then we reject the null hypothesis.
   2. FALSE: Assuming that the zero hypothesis (H₀) is TRUE in the sample, how (un)likely is it to be this observed t-value (or an even more extreme t-value)? If it is highly unlikely, then we reject the null hypothesis.
   3. FALSE: Assuming that the alternative hypothesis (H_a) is true is true in the population, how (un)likely is it to have this observed t-value (or an even more extreme t-value)? If it is very unlikely, then we reject the null hypothesis.
   4. FALSE: Assuming that the alternative hypothesis (H_a) is true is true in the sample, how (un)likely is it to have this observed t-value (or an even more extreme t-value)? If it is very unlikely, then we reject the null hypothesis.
