Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
When a research hypothesis suggests a nondirect relationship between two variables, it implies that the direction of the relationship is not specified. This situation calls for a two-tailed test, which is used to determine if there is any significant relationship between the variables, regardless of the direction of the relationship.
