TwoSided

TwoSided
is an option to hypothesis test functions that specifies whether the test should be two-sided.

MORE INFORMATION

To use TwoSided, you first need to load the Hypothesis Testing Package using Needs["HypothesisTesting`"].

With default setting TwoSided->False, the p-value is associated with the smaller tail of the distribution of the test statistics.

With TwoSided->True, the p-value is split between the two tails of the distribution of the test statistic.
