The video tutorial covers hypothesis testing, focusing on null and alternative hypotheses, test statistics, and p values. It uses the XSORT method as a case study to illustrate these concepts. The tutorial explains critical regions, significance levels, and the process of hypothesis rejection through left-tail, right-tail, and two-tail tests.
