Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The p-value can be computed without knowing the level of significance (alpha). The p-value is determined based on the test statistic, the type of test (one-tailed or two-tailed), and the probability distribution of the test statistic. The level of significance is used afterward to decide whether to reject the null hypothesis by comparing it with the p-value.
