"Recently the American Statistical Association (ASA) put out a position paper in which they specifically warn against misuse of the P value.
This is the first time in their 177 years of existence they have felt
the need to put out such a position paper. The reason for this
unprecedented act was their feeling that abuse of the P value is taking
the practice of science off course, and a much needed course correction
is overdue."
P Value Under Fire
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
