| type II error |
The researcher's data-based decision that the null hypothesis is true when it is really false. While this incorrect conclusion could be the result of bad luck as in the case of a Type I Error, a more worrisome possibility is that the experiment had low power.

| type I error |
Also known as "false positive" or "alpha error." An incorrect judgment or conclusion that occurs when an association is found between variables where, in fact, no association exists. In an experiment, for example, if the experimental procedure does not really have any effect, chance or random error may cause the researcher to conclude that the experimental procedure did have an effect.

Also known as "false negative" or "beta error." An incorrect judgement or conclusion that occurs when no association is found between variables where in fact, an association does exist.
