For this question, assume that Jerry completed on one-tailed test. Because he believed that hands-on experience was actually mor
e important than a college degree, he predicted that having a college degree would actually result in a lower salary. So, it turns out that he completed a one-tailed test, but his prediction was wrong, what would he conclude?
Already, Jerry does not believe in the benefits of having a theoretical perspective to issues, that is why he negates the unique role of having a theoretical knowledge which helps thou to understudy the guidelines involved and the reasons behind them.
It should be understood that, Jerry assumptions that hands-on experience was important than a college degree, and that, having a college degree would result in a lower salary were very wrong.
And since Jerry has discovered that he had made wrong assumptions, and a costly mistake of having only the hand-on experience and not a college degree, he will try to find words that can be used to console himself. And that is why, he will conclude that the difference is not significant.
