@OSFramework For me at least, defining new significance thresholds doesn't seem like a step in that direction ... more like a lateral movement. (7/7)

@OSFramework Even though it's hard in practice, I would argue for statisticians to promote and practice context-driven statistical analyses (6/n)

@OSFramework The authors acknowledge this as potential criticism but don't offer much by way of rebuttal. (5/n)

@OSFramework Choosing an arbitrary threshold for 'significance' seems unscientific because it ignores context in which H test is being applied (4/n)

@OSFramework But it seems to come up short on what I see as the most substantial problem with signif. testing: arbitrary thresholds (.05, .005) (3/n)

@OSFramework Addressing a major problem in scientific research, endorsed by highly accomplished scientists (2/n)

Here is an interesting & provocative paper on significance (1/n) Redefine statistical significance osf.io/preprints/psya… via @OSFramework

I like this graphic from @MonaChalabi Not sure causality is even a relevant issue. Key point of graphic is clear: US = major outlier twitter.com/MonaChalabi/st…
