متن کاملThe statistical and physical significance of confidence intervals
It is shown that the necessity to choose a specific Frequentist method, among several available, for the analysis of experimental data does not introduce any degree of subjectivity from a statistical point of view. However, the physical significance of confidence intervals obtained with different methods is different. Considering the case of a Poisson process with known background, we show that...
متن کاملConfidence Intervals Permit, but Do Not Guarantee, Better Inference than Statistical Significance Testing
A statistically significant result, and a non-significant result may differ little, although significance status may tempt an interpretation of difference. Two studies are reported that compared interpretation of such results presented using null hypothesis significance testing (NHST), or confidence intervals (CIs). Authors of articles published in psychology, behavioral neuroscience, and medic...
متن کاملOverlapping confidence intervals or standard error intervals: What do they mean in terms of statistical significance?
We investigate the procedure of checking for overlap between confidence intervals or standard error intervals to draw conclusions regarding hypotheses about differences between population parameters. Mathematical expressions and algebraic manipulations are given, and computer simulations are performed to assess the usefulness of confidence and standard error intervals in this manner. We make re...
