This may suggest that both initial hypotheses are too simple to gain much support.

Often the initial hypothesis requires adjustment in light of model evidence.

If unexpected findings are made during this process, the initial hypothesis may be ruled out and the provider must then consider other hypotheses.

These initial hypotheses served as the driving force for much theoretical and empirical research.

Often the image method is used to create an initial hypothesis about a person's type, which is tested against more reliable methods.

Like detectives, statisticians gather evidence to see if an initial hypothesis can be rejected.

The pattern of the learning curve was an attractive initial hypothesis to explain this.

Overall, none of the initial hypotheses were confirmed.

Our current model provides an initial working hypothesis that can form the basis of further investigation.

In fact, initial hypotheses have proved to be wrong.
