Philip B. Stark

While P-values are widely abused, they are a useful tool for many purposes; banning them is analogous to banning scalpels because most people do not know how to perform surgery. Many reported P-values are not genuine P-values, for a variety of reasons. Perhaps the most widespread and pernicious problem is the Type III error of testing a statistical hypothesis that has little or no connection to the scientific hypothesis.

评论 D. Mayo 的“统计战争和知识分子利益冲突”

虽然 P 值被广泛滥用,但它们在许多方面都是有用的工具;禁止它们类似于禁止手术刀,因为大多数人不知道如何进行手术。由于各种原因,许多报告的 P 值不是真正的 P 值。也许最普遍和最有害的问题是检验与科学假设几乎没有联系的统计假设的 III 型错误。
