In order for a statement to be called a scientific hypothesis, it must be specific and testable.
A hypothesis is a testable problem that can be proved or disproved.
Proposition is a broad statement drawn from a theory, whereas a hypothesis takes this one step further and formulates a more specific statement that is empirically testable. Proposition states a relationship between two concepts, and a hypothesis operationalizes this relationship and puts it in an empirically testable form.
