Abstract:
A broad review is given of the role of statistical significance tests in the analysis of empirical data. Four main types of application are outlined. The first, conceptually quite different from the others, concerns decision making in such contexts as medical screening and industrial inspection. The others assess the security of conclusions. The article concludes with an outline discussion of some more specialized points.

Abstract:
This essay reviews The Cult of Statistical Significance: How the Standard Error Costs Us Jobs, Justice, and Lives, by Stephen T. Ziliak and Deirdre N. McCloskey. The book's core message is that statistical significance should not be equated with substantive significance and that empirical researchers should convey more information about the magnitude of relationships and effects than many now do. This essay summarizes, approves of, and elaborates on Ziliak and McCloskey's message with special attention to concerns of the legal academy. It clarifies appropriate uses of significance tests within the research framework of controlling for plausible rival hypotheses.

Full text
Abstract:
In an attempt to preserve research integrity, the aim of this study is to examine how often statistical results are being misrepresented in empirical studies by using terms such as “marginally significant,” “approached significance,” or “trend toward significance” when interpreting findings. The use of these terms gives ambiguous significance to results that are in fact nonsignificant, which threatens future research by contributing to issues such as the replication crisis. For this study, data were coded from 437 empirical articles published online in The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (JPSP) over a 4-year period between 2017 and 2020. According to our findings, although misrepresentation of statistical results are prevalent within JPSP articles, rates decreased significantly over the four-year time period examined. Additionally, as the number of studies published in JPSP increased each year during the four-year period examined, there may be a potential rise in representatively sound studies and decrease of misrepresentation within this discipline.

Full text
Abstract:
Excerpt: The study by Linna et al1 posited that “eating disorders appear to be associated with several adverse perinatal outcomes, particularly in offspring.” The adverse outcomes included anemia, slow fetal growth, premature contractions, and perinatal death. However, this conclusion cannot be supported by the data because the authors failed to correct the standard value of P = .05 to account for the large number of hypothesis tests. This leads to what is known as type 2 error and causes a hypothesis to be accepted that is actually false.

Abstract:
Type II diabetes is one of the leading cause of morbidity in the U.S. and other parts of the world. Insulin resistance which precedes Type II diabetes is a complex state of the body where the body fails to respond to insulin. Its complexity lies in its multifactorial origin that is to say various environmental and polygenic components come into play. Here we try to dissect one of these components - `Alox8' in transgenic mice and try to see if it affects blood glucose homeostasis. Comparison of glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity among sixteen mice comprising of six wild type, five heterozygous and five knockout mice with respect to Alox8 gene showed that wild type mice had relatively more glucose tolerance than knockout mice and this corresponded with relatively more insulin sensitiveness of wild type mice with respect to the knock out. However, these findings were not significant statistically at p=0.05. In search of any relevant biological significance, periodic acid schiff staining of the liver sections from these mice in three independent repeated experiments revealed that the knockout phenotype led to accumulation of glycogen deposits as compared to the wild type mice, an indication of insulin resistance. Taken together, our data suggests that these findings when extrapolated to human which carries ALOX15B instead of mice orthologue Alox8, could lead to a benefit of administration of lower doses of insulin in the wild type phenotype as compared to its polymorphic alleles carrying individuals.

Full text
Abstract:
Excerpt: In their recent study [ 1 ], Lavesson et al. concluded, “In febrile parturients, neither maternal nor fetal temperatures dropped after paracetamol, but paracetamol halted an increasing trend and stabilized the fetal temperature. The effect of paracetamol on maternal temperature was inconclusive”. This conclusion, however, is not supported by the data in the study, in that the calculation of case and control temperature differences demonstrates clear fetal and maternal temperature decreases after paracetamol.

Full text
Abstract:
Evidence from research on infectious diseases suggests that income inequality is related to higher rates of infection and death in disadvantaged population groups. Our objective is to examine whether there was an association between income inequality and the numbers of cases and deaths during the first wave of the COVID- 19 pandemic in European countries. We determined the duration of the first wave by first smoothing the number of daily cases, and then using a LOESS regression to fit the smoothed trend. Next, we estimated quasi-Poisson regressions. Results from the bivariate models suggest there was a moderate positive association between the Gini index values and the cumulated number of infections and deaths during the first wave, although the statistical significance of this association disappeared when controls were included. Results from multivariate models suggest that higher numbers of infections and deaths from COVID-19 were associated with countries having more essential workers, larger elderly populations and lower health care capacities.

Using a standard trust game, we elicit trust and reciprocity measures in a representative sample of adult players in Montevideo, the capital city of Uruguay, a country that exhibits relatively better levels of tolerance towards migrants than other Latin American countries. We find no statistically significant differences in trust levels of Uruguayans towards countrymen versus migrants. In reciprocity, we find only marginally significant differences attributable to the nationality of the players.
