| type II error |
In a hypothesis test, a Type II error occurs when the null hypothesis is not rejected when it is, in fact, false. For example, in a clinical trial of a new drug, the null hypothesis might be that the new drug is no better, on average, than the current drug. A Type II error would occur if it were concluded that the two drugs produced the same effect when, in fact, they produced different ones. Contrast with Type I error.
