\u2192 What to do if your p-value is just over the arbitrary threshold for \u2018significance\u2019 of p=0.05?<\/a><\/h4>\n

Matthew Hankins carried out an analysis of the wording researchers use when their statistical tests yield non-significant results (p > 0.05). Hilarious!<\/p>\n

” The following list is culled from peer-reviewed journal articles in which (a) the authors set themselves the threshold of 0.05 for significance, (b) failed to achieve that threshold value for p and (c) described it in such a way as to make it seem more interesting.
\n[…]
\nhere is the list in full:
\n(barely) not statistically significant (p=0.052)<\/em>
\n a barely detectable statistically significant difference (p=0.073)<\/em>
\n a borderline significant trend (p=0.09)<\/em>
\n a certain trend toward significance (p=0.08)<\/em>
\n a clear tendency to significance (p=0.052)<\/em>
\n a clear trend (p<0.09)<\/em>
\n a clear, strong trend (p=0.09)
\n[…]”
