A one-tailed test allocates the entire significance level α\alpha to its designated tail. Unlike a two-tailed test which splits α\alpha into α/2\alpha/2 for each tail, a one-tailed test places all of α\alpha in either the left or the right tail, depending on the direction specified by the alternative hypothesis.

Conditions: The test is one-tailed.; The significance level is α\alpha.; The direction is specified by the alternative hypothesis (<< or >>).
