Rules of evidence
“Understanding of statistical tests can be improved by abandoning the term significance, which means reliability to psychologists … The importance of a result depends on magnitude of association, not on whether the event has a nonzero chance of recurring … Better uses of statistics would focus on the magnitude of effects and error estimates.” Sandra Scarr (1997) RULES OF EVIDENCE:. A Larger Context for the Statistical Debate Psychological Science 8 (1), 16–17.
