Thanks @ken_rothman for sharing. Isn’t it a political issue now; like gun control. People might know the harmful use of significance testing & p-values (like Guns). But the agencies in power (journals , scientists etc) don’t want to change the practice

This is old news, but still relevant https://t.co/Y5USRMKog2

Enjoyed reading this. Major takeaway: statistical significance doesn't mean what you think it means. Business decisions shouldn't be made based on a p-value passing a particular threshold alone. https://t.co/EtK9vfovaV

Can I mark myself up? The p-value does not relate to 'chance' alone. All random error/ chance relates to something. The p-value is the probability of data related to a specific hypothesis (usually the null). I'll go with the ASA on this one: https:/

@dscharf3 @irishinneburg Even the American Statistical Association supports the point that @dscharf3 is making. From their official statement: "A p-value, or statistical significance, does not measure the size of an effect or the importance of a result."
