False positive/negative

Is it important that we remember the errors I and II are called false positive and false negative?

Hi Orion,

It is not super important, however, many practitioners prefer using 'false positive' and 'false negative' instead of Type I error and Type II error. If you need it in practice, you will quickly learn the terms, so no worries!
