September Member Training: Inference and p-values and Statistical Significance, Oh My!

by TAF Support

Statistical inference using hypothesis testing is ubiquitous in science. Several misconceptions and misinterpretations of p-values have arisen over the years, which can lead to challenges communicating the correct interpretation of results.

In this training, we will:

  • Review the p-value definition
  • Examine common misconceptions and misinterpretations of p-values
  • Discuss the recommendation to stop using the phrase ‘statistically significant’
  • Discuss recommendations for moving forward

This training is appropriate for those with some experience conducting statistical inference using hypothesis testing.


Note: This training is an exclusive benefit to members of the Statistically Speaking Membership Program and part of the Stat’s Amore Trainings Series. Each Stat’s Amore Training is approximately 90 minutes long.
