abstract = "Misinterpretation and abuse of statistical tests,
|
|
|
|
|
confidence intervals, and statistical power have
|
|
|
|
|
been decried for decades, yet remain rampant. A key
|
|
|
|
|
problem is that there are no interpretations of
|
|
|
|
|
these concepts that are at once simple, intuitive,
|
|
|
|
|
correct, and foolproof. Instead, correct use and
|
|
|
|
|
interpretation of these statistics requires an
|
|
|
|
|
attention to detail which seems to tax the patience
|
|
|
|
|
of working scientists. This high cognitive demand
|
|
|
|
|
has led to an epidemic of shortcut definitions and
|
|
|
|
|
interpretations that are simply wrong, sometimes
|
|
|
|
|
disastrously so---and yet these misinterpretations
|
|
|
|
|
dominate much of the scientific literature. In light
|
|
|
|
|
of this problem, we provide definitions and a
|
|
|
|
|
discussion of basic statistics that are more general
|
|
|
|
|
and critical than typically found in traditional
|
|
|
|
|
introductory expositions. Our goal is to provide a
|
|
|
|
|
resource for instructors, researchers, and consumers
|
|
|
|
|
of statistics whose knowledge of statistical theory
|
|
|
|
|
and technique may be limited but who wish to avoid
|
|
|
|
|
and spot misinterpretations. We emphasize how
|
|
|
|
|
violation of often unstated analysis protocols (such
|
|
|
|
|
as selecting analyses for presentation based on the
|
|
|
|
|
P values they produce) can lead to small P values
|
|
|
|
|
even if the declared test hypothesis is correct, and
|
|
|
|
|
can lead to large P values even if that hypothesis
|
|
|
|
|
is incorrect. We then provide an explanatory list of
|
|
|
|
|
25 misinterpretations of P values, confidence
|
|
|
|
|
intervals, and power. We conclude with guidelines
|
|
|
|
|
for improving statistical interpretation and
|
|
|
|
|
reporting.",
