A prediction of a relationship involving theoretical constructs is known as

A conceptual hypothesis predicts a relationship stated in terms of abstract theoretical constructs.

An operational hypothesis instead states the relation through measured, operationalised variables.

A general hypothesis is a broad untested conjecture, not tied specifically to constructs.

A non-directional hypothesis predicts a difference without specifying its direction.

The conceptual form is later translated into operational terms for testing.

Constructs such as intelligence or anxiety cannot be observed directly.
