Misuse of p-values is a prevalent issue in scientific research. P-values are often misunderstood and misapplied, leading to incorrect conclusions. A p-value measures the probability of obtaining results at least as extreme as the observed ones, assuming that the null hypothesis is true. Common problems with p-values include:

✅ Overemphasis on significance: Researchers often focus on whether p-values are below a threshold (e.g., 0.05), ignoring the effect size and practical significance.

✅ P-hacking: Manipulating data or experimental conditions to achieve statistically significant p-values.

✅ Misinterpretation: Believing that a low p-value proves the alternative hypothesis or that a high p-value confirms the null hypothesis.

✅ Ignoring context: Failing to consider the broader context of the study, including prior evidence and the research design.

I just heard someone say.
The reason you isolate when you’re struggling is because you were left alone as a child to deal with your emotions.
I felt that, I felt that a lot.
Woah
