Abstract

Within social science, there are large numbers of causal hypotheses in format of necessary and/or SUFFICIENT CONDITION. With respect to the importance of these hypotheses, it is required to pay attention to how we can empirically evaluate and test them Scholars that proposed necessary and/or SUFFICIENT CONDITION and tested them quantitatively, usually, did not consider whether their statistical techniques were appropriate or not for testing this sort of hypotheses. Since, it is impossible to find a statistical methods textbook that even mentions necessary and/or SUFFICIENT CONDITION hypotheses and how to test them, quantitative researchers inevitably apply standard statistical procedures allocated to non-necessary and/or SUFFICIENT CONDITION hypotheses for assessment necessary and/or SUFFICIENT CONDITION hypotheses. This article demonstrates, with respect to special properties of necessary and/or SUFFICIENT CONDITION hypotheses, that standard statistical procedures cannot provide valid answers for research questions. Hence, in empirical research it is quite possible to get statistically significant results with data that simple visual inspection indicates in no way support a necessary and/or SUFFICIENT CONDITION hypothesis.
