P-value

Topic: Management

The probability of getting results at least as extreme as those observed if the null hypothesis were true. If it is below the significance level chosen in advance (alpha, usually 0.05), the result is called statistically significant. A p-value is not the probability that a hypothesis is true, and it does not show the size or clinical importance of an effect; for that, look at the effect size and the confidence interval.

Also known as:
Statistical significance, Significance level
In Turkish:
