The Birds and the ps
The birds and the ps. Giving THE TALK to collaborators. (304104)
*Mary J Kwasny, Northwestern University
This talk is designed to address how to discuss with collaborators the importance and impact of the ASA’s recent policy statement regarding p-values. I will discuss specific principles in the statement and suggest ways to communicate the issues at hand with collaborators in order to help fulfill the expectation of the ASA statement, symposium on inference, and The American Statistician’s special issue on a World Beyond p<0.05. That is, to “lead to a major rethinking of statistical inference, aiming to initiate a process that ultimately moves statistical science, and science itself, into a new age.”
