- QUOTE: Two-sample hypothesis testing is statistical analysis designed to test if there is a difference between two means from two different populations. For example, a two-sample hypothesis could be used to test if there is a difference in the mean salary between male and female doctors in the New York City area. A two-sample hypothesis test could also be used to test if the mean number of defective parts produced using assembly line A is greater than the mean number of defective parts produced using assembly line B. Similar to one-sample hypothesis tests, a one-tailed or two-tailed test of the null hypothesis can be performed in two-sample hypothesis testing as well. The two-sample hypothesis test of no difference between the mean salaries of male and female doctors in the New York City area is an example of a two-tailed test. The test of whether or not the mean number of defective parts produced on assembly line A is greater than the mean number of defective parts produced on assembly line B is an example of a one-tailed test.
