Specifically, it would help if the following rubric criteria were:

Write a hypothesis phrased as an if/then statement.

• Make sure the relationship between the variables predicted is clear.
• Explain how your hypothesis directly relates to the finalized research question.
• Explain how the hypothesis is testable.
• Make sure research methods can be used to determine the accuracy of the prediction (i.e., could it be accepted or rejected?).
• Explain how the hypothesis is falsifiable.
• It must be possible to prove the hypothesis wrong.
