"P Value" or "Number Needed to Treat": Which One Is Better for Evaluating Clinical Treatments’ Benefits? [PDF]
Statistical significance does not necessarily mean clinical significance. A P value less than 0.05 does not guarantee the clinical effectiveness of a treatment. To assess the clinical valuable of a treatment, the effect size must be calculated.

University Students' Attitudes Toward EMI in the Chinese Mainland: A Study of the Moderating Variables [PDF]
In China, while an increasing number of research studies have shed light on English-medium instruction (EMI) at the tertiary level, very few have investigated the influence of EFL learners’ negative emotions (e.g., anxiety) on their attitudes toward EMI.

Numerical simulation of grain-size effects on creep crack growth by means of grain elements [PDF]
The effect of grain size on creep crack growth is investigated by means of a numerical technique in which the actual crack growth process is simulated in a discrete manner by grain elements and grain boundary elements.

The probability of conceptual replication and the variability of effect size
We present a model, related to an earlier model of Miller and Schwarz (2011), which shows that the probability of conceptual replication depends on the standard deviation of the true effect size, SD(δ), among other parameters. Computational analyses show

Intrinsic Transverse Size Effect [PDF]
Two recently proposed concepts to improve the perturbative calculation of exclusive amplitudes, gluonic radiative corrections (Sudakov factor) and confinement size effects (intrinsic transverse momentum) are combined to study the neutron magnetic form ...

Effective population size [PDF]
What is it? An aid to calculation in population genetics, introduced by Sewall Wright. The rate of change of the genetic make-up of a population by genetic drift – fluctuations in allele frequencies caused by random sampling – is inversely related to the effective population size, Ne. Ne is measured with reference to an ideal ‘Wright–Fisher’ population.
