Many experimental scientists' careers depend on calculating P values from the statistical analysis of their data, whether in psychology or geology or medicine. A PhD, publication, or grant may depend on a P value, which together with the Impact Factor is one of the most important statistics on which modern scientific careers are based. Even within traditional chemometrics, P values have some role, for example, to determine whether a factor in an experiment has a significant influence on the response or whether a potential marker compound is significant.

P 值和罗纳德·费舍尔

许多实验科学家的职业依赖于从他们的数据的统计分析中计算 P 值，无论是在心理学、地质学还是医学领域。博士学位、出版物或资助可能取决于 P 值，P 值与影响因子一起是现代科学职业所基于的最重要的统计数据之一。即使在传统的化学计量学中，P 值也有一些作用，例如，确定实验中的一个因素是否对响应有显着影响或潜在的标记化合物是否显着。
