Hi,
I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to say concerning the hypothesis.
There is something called "weighting" when you are running statistics
over a population.
This is the way to correct the answers you received because you received
too many answers from certain type of people
This is a very well known process (I use to work in stastistics) but it
requires initial population references (like number of men/women, number
of people by age, by profession, etc..).
This is too complex for the project as it usually requires a special
algorithm running in special software. Most survey software don't do it
themselves except that they allow to export the data so that you can
calculate it in a separate tool and allow to load in your tool a
"weight" for each response (this is a floating number close to 1). You
then use this number to show your statistical result.
Instead of doing
Reponse 1 to question 1 : count(response 1)
Reponse 2 to question 1 : count(response 2)
You do
Reponse 1 to question 1 : sum(weight * response 1)
Reponse 2 to question 1 : sum(weight * response 2)

Hai Dear mentors
I have some doubts of what you think of about my idea defining a hypothesis
for the survey application
If you are not clear about my idea please visit my blog

I hope this idea can give a good meaning to the survey application.
Also if its too complex we can add some option like "ignore this" option.
Need your guidance.
Thank you.
