I have actually been studying and using statistics a lot in my career, but I still struggle with finding a simply way to explain what exactly is p-value.
In: Mathematics
In the simplest possible terms, it’s the likelihood that whatever your experiment is testing isn’t making a difference to the result. The lower the p-value, the more statistically significant your results are.
Basically, it’s the answer to the question: “How sure are we that the result is due to the experiment and not due to things that we aren’t testing?”
