[Selçuk Korkmaz @selcukorkmaz]

Statistical tests like P-values, confidence intervals, and power are crucial in research but are often misunderstood. Misinterpretations can lead to wrong conclusions and affect scientific progress.

P-values don’t tell you the probability that your hypothesis is true. Instead, they show how likely your data is if the hypothesis and all other model assumptions are correct. A small P-value means your data is unusual under the hypothesis.

Confidence intervals are not the probability of containing the true effect. A 95% confidence interval means that if you repeated the study many times, 95% of the intervals would include the true effect. It’s about long-term behavior, not single cases.

Power is about study design, not about interpreting results. It’s the chance to detect an effect if there is one before you do the study. After the study, power does not tell you the probability of being right or wrong.

Common mistakes include labeling results as "significant" or "not" based on P=0.05, thinking P<0.05 means the effect is important, and ignoring confidence intervals. These errors can mislead and undermine research findings.

To improve: Focus on effect sizes and confidence intervals, avoid relying only on P-values, carefully check your model assumptions, and report exact P-values and estimates. This leads to clearer and more accurate scientific conclusions.
