  2. Statistical significance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_significance

    In 2016, the American Statistical Association (ASA) published a statement on p-values, saying that "the widespread use of 'statistical significance' (generally interpreted as 'p0.05') as a license for making a claim of a scientific finding (or implied truth) leads to considerable distortion of the scientific process". [57]

  3. p-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-value

    When a collection of p-values are available (e.g. when considering a group of studies on the same subject), the distribution of p-values is sometimes called a p-curve. [11] A p-curve can be used to assess the reliability of scientific literature, such as by detecting publication bias or p-hacking. [11] [12]

  4. Dagger (mark) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagger_(mark)

    In psychological statistics the dagger indicates that a difference between two figures is not significant to a p<0.05 level, however is still considered a "trend" or worthy of note. Commonly this will be used for a p-value between 0.1 and 0.05.

  6. Type I and type II errors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_I_and_type_II_errors

    The solution to this question would be to report the p-value or significance level α of the statistic. For example, if the p-value of a test statistic result is estimated at 0.0596, then there is a probability of 5.96% that we falsely reject H 0.

  7. Tukey's range test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tukey's_range_test

    Suppose that we take a sample of size n from each of k populations with the same normal distribution N(μ, σ 2) and suppose that ¯ is the smallest of these sample means and ¯ is the largest of these sample means, and suppose S 2 is the pooled sample variance from these samples. Then the following random variable has a Studentized range ...

  8. Effect size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_size

    In statistics, an effect size is a value measuring the strength of the relationship between two variables in a population, or a sample-based estimate of that quantity. It can refer to the value of a statistic calculated from a sample of data, the value of one parameter for a hypothetical population, or to the equation that operationalizes how statistics or parameters lead to the effect size ...

  9. False discovery rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_discovery_rate

    The p-values of the rejected null hypothesis (i.e. declared discoveries) are colored in red. Note that there are rejected p-values which are above the rejection line (in blue) since all null hypothesis of p-values which are ranked before the p-value of the last intersection are rejected. The approximations MFDR = 0.02625 and AFDR = 0.00730, here.
