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”.

In the medical field research outcomes are often measured in statistical significance (ie does it probably work?), and clinical significance (if it does something, is it worth the effort?).
This sounds like a scenario where it works, but not very well.
