Null hypothesis significance testing vs. Bayesian inference using generalized linear mixed models with binary outcomes: a case study under practical design constraints [PDF]
Empirical investigation requires dealing with fundamental uncertainty. In experimental psychology, research questions are often addressed using Null Hypothesis Significance Testing (NHST), an approach rooted in the frequentist statistical tradition.

The posterior probability of a null hypothesis given a statistically significant result [PDF]
When researchers carry out a null hypothesis significance test, it is tempting to assume that a statistically significant result lowers Prob(H0), the probability of the null hypothesis being true.

Extending the null hypothesis to invertebrate pain sentience
In 1985 Macphail proposed his Null Hypothesis that there were no qualitative differences in intelligence across vertebrate species. A recent review of the literature has found overwhelming support for his view.

Bayesian reanalysis of null results reported in medicine: Strong yet variable evidence for the absence of treatment effects. [PDF]
Efficient medical progress requires that we know when a treatment effect is absent. We considered all 207 Original Articles published in the 2015 volume of the New England Journal of Medicine and found that 45 (21.7%) reported a null result for at least ...

Computation of cumulative density of noncentral chi-square distribution in Excel [PDF]
Noncentral distributions are obtained by transformation of their respective central distributions, and are identified by a noncentrality parameter. The noncentrality parameter measures the degree to which mean of test statistics departs, when the null ...

Fisher’s significance test: A gentle introduction
The p-value is often misunderstood and, for example, misinterpreted as a probability for the correctness of the null hypothesis. The aim of this article is to first explain the definition of the p-value.

Hypothesis of the scientific research [PDF]
To clarify the hypotheses of scientific research and their role, it is first necessary to clarify the hypothesis concept. The hypothesis is called the initial and unsafe assumption, but it is, however, unlikely to be verified, based on which the first ...
