There are two types of errors in statistics.

  • Type 1 error: When a null hypothesis is rejected, which was true, Type 1 error occurs. Type 1 error is also called as the error of the first kind.
  • Type 2 error: This error occurs when a null hypothesis is accepted, which was false. Type 2 error is also called as the error of the second kind.
