How to write a hypothesis statement

For example, a study designed to look at the relationship between sleep deprivation and test performance might have a hypothesis that states, “This study is designed to assess the hypothesis that sleep-deprived people will perform worse on a test than individuals who are not sleep-deprived.”

A hypothesis is a prediction you create prior to running an experiment. The common format is: If [cause], then [effect], because [rationale]. In the world of experience optimization, strong hypotheses consist of three distinct parts: a definition of the problem, a proposed solution, and a result.
