significance testing  

Definición

  • Significance testing provides objective rules for determining whether a researcher's hypotheses are supported by the data. The need for objectivity arises from the fact that the hypotheses refer to values for populations of interest, whereas the data come from samples of varying reliability in representing the populations.
