Abstract
In the present paper, the author has explained the meaning and definition of the hypothesis & discussed the 'TTSV' formula. 'TTSV' formula can be utilized to find out whether a statement is a hypothesis or not. As part of the 'TTSV' formula, the author has explained positive, negative, and null associations between or amongst the variables.
In this paper, there is an exposition on the need for the existence of variables to create scientific knowledge and exceptions thereof. A proposition to be a hypothesis, should meet the conditions depicted in this paper. Therefore, every hypothesis is a proposition, but every proposition is not a hypothesis. The author further explains the kinds of research wherein the hypothesis is demanded and the types of research in which hypothesis are not required.
