Catchment‐scale fractional snow cover derived from MODIS products was a significant predictor in empirical models to predict daily stream temperature for May, June, September and October, especially for catchments greater than 10 km2. Inclusion of mean June snow cover as a predictor in models for July to October indicated that the cooling effect of ...

Ruling out that there is absolutely no effect or association between variables may be a good first step, but it is rarely the ultimate goal of science. Yet that is the only inference provided by traditional null hypothesis significance testing (NHST), which has been a mainstay of many scientific fields.

Uncovering key statistical concepts from an investigation of four standardized tests
Abstract To this date, few standardized tests measuring students' performance with regards to statistics exist. Only four tests have been proposed for college or university students. The goal of the present study is to investigate these tests. University professors or instructors experienced in teaching statistics were asked to list the concepts they ...

Abstract Paleomagnetic data underpin our understanding of Earth's ancient magnetic field and are essential to paleogeographic reconstructions. At the specimen level, paleomagnetic analysis relies upon stepwise demagnetization to enable isolation and quantification of magnetic remanence components in geological materials.

Replication unreliability in psychology: elusive phenomena or elusive statistical power?
The focus of this paper is to analyse whether the unreliability of results related to certain controversial psychological phenomena may be a consequence of their low statistical power.Applying the Null Hypothesis Statistical Testing (NHST), still the ...

A Bayesian alternative for aoristic analyses in archaeology
Abstract Aoristic analysis is often used to handle chronological uncertainties of datasets where scientific dates (e.g., 14C and OSL) are unavailable, and observations are described by association to archaeological periods or phases. Although several advances have been made over the last 2 decades, the basic principle of this approach remains ...

ABSTRACT Patient enrollment can be a substantial burden in rare disease trials. One potential approach is to incorporate external control (EC) into concurrent randomized trials, or EC borrowing, to reduce such burden. Extensive research has been conducted to explore statistical methodologies.
