With the assistance of the survey responses from the AIU data set, the data about different variables has been observed for a specified sample. In this paper, the variable extrinsic job satisfaction will be analyzed by applying Hypothesis Testing. Hypothesis mainly refers to the assertion, which provides explanation about some condition or event (Bernstein & Bernstein, 1999). For statistical analysis of data, it is essential to formulate the Hypothesis to be tested about the data. The Hypothesis for the paper will assist in analyzing the extrinsic job satisfaction effectively.

Null Hypothesis: It represents the statement that is considered as a basis for the argument about certain condition. The Null Hypothesis for the paper is:

H0: It is considered that average extrinsic job satisfaction = 5.0

H0: μ = 5.0

Alternative Hypothesis: It represents the statement that is considered as a basis for the argument in case of rejection of Null Hypothesis. The ...
