We reject a null hypothesis that is false. We do not reject a null hypothesis that is false. A Type II error is committed when: We reject a null hypothesis that is true. We do not reject a null hypothesis that is false. We do not reject a null hypothesis that is true. We reject a null hypothesis that is false.
