"We can accept the null hypothesis" - this sentence is not true. There is no strong reason or proof to accept it but also, there is no strong reason to reject it. So, we say, we cannot reject the null hypothesis. Just I wanted to say this because I saw it in some academic articles. Thank you.

Hello Idrak and Sitara! Thanks for reaching out! That's right! You are absolutely correct. It's just a poor choice of words but the result stands the same. Thanks for noticing! Best, The 365 Team
