Statistical significance

185 views

Trying to do a research paper. One of my potential sources says “group a scored slightly, but significantly worse than group b”. I don’t understand how you can score slightly but significantly worse. Googled that phrase and it sounds like the source means “statistically significant”.

It simply suggests that a variance is probably not down to chance (ie is non-random).

“Probability” does a lot of heavy lifting in statistics 😉
