Testing the proposition is part of research. Testing of hypothesis is a statistical technique used in testing propositions in research. Proposition is a statement of theory that posits a relationship between a dependent concept and independent concept. A series of propositions may show relations between number of concepts.
From the proposition, hypothesis is deduced and tested. Hypothesis is developed for a particular situation that is being used for testing a proposition.

2. Testing the proposition
Good faith efforts to establish goals and then to collectively and regularly monitor and adjust actions toward them produce results. (Schmoker, 1996)

3. A key proposition of the NJL model is that in evaluating a branded product, consumers do associate the brand with a certain OC and are aware of the brand’s MC. The purpose of the present paper is to suggest a methodology for the testing this proposition and present initial findings of its application.

4. PPP is a long established proposition, which dates from well beyond its first technical exposition
by Cassel (1922). The theory of PPP is essentially the law of one price applied to a basket of
equivalent goods traded internationally.
This article considers whether exchange rates satisfy Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) in the
long-run by testing whether the real exchange rate is stationary. PPP is a critical factor in the
long-run determination of exchange rates. Much of the recent evidence testing the proposition
that the real exchange rate is stationary using univariate time series would suggest that PPP
does not hold as the hypothesis that real exchange rates are stationary is commonly rejected
(see Abuaf and Jorion, 1990).

5. Proposition: Millenials learn differently
Most students entering our classrooms were born between 1978 and
1995. Commonly referred to as Millennials, Boomlets, or the Net Generation,
they have been characterized as born consumers, digital natives,
tech-savvy, highly social, always connected, collaborative, multitasking,
impatient, lifestyle-focused, craving of diverse media, desiring
open access to everything, and leading 24/7 lives. No matter their economic
status, they know the World Wide Web, social media, and entertainment
technologies such as film, music, and games as consistent and
constant components of their everyday experience. They share their
thoughts, feelings, and ideas with family and friends electronically, and
they are accustomed to instantaneous information retrieval and communication.
These students interact with the world in radically different
ways than did the generations before them. At Seton Hill University,
we are testing the proposition that they learn differently as well.
