Hypothesis Generator

Help me develop testable hypotheses for my research:

Research area: [FIELD/TOPIC]
Observation: [WHAT YOU'VE NOTICED OR QUESTION YOU HAVE]
Existing theory: [RELEVANT THEORY OR FRAMEWORK]
Variables of interest: [INDEPENDENT/DEPENDENT VARIABLES]

For each hypothesis:
1. Null hypothesis (H₀)
2. Alternative hypothesis (H₁)
3. Directional vs non-directional consideration
4. Testability assessment
5. Measurement approach
6. Potential confounds
7. Effect size estimation
8. Sample size considerations

Generate 3-5 hypotheses ranging from conservative to bold.
