What If There Were No Significance Tests? (Multivariate Applications Series)

Multivariate Applications Series

by Lisa L. Harlow

A debate stimulated by a recent meeting of the Society of Multivariate Experimental Psychology resulted in the publication of this book. Although the viewpoints span a range of perspectives, the overriding theme that emerges states that significance testing may still be useful if supplemented with some or all of the following - Bayesian logic, caution, confidence intervals, effect sizes and power, other goodness of approximation measures, replication and meta-analysis, sound reasoning, and theory appraisal and corroboration.
