Question

When testing a new treatment, what is the difference between statistical significance and practical significance? Can a treatment have statistical significance, but not practical significance? Choose the correct answer below 0 A Statistical significance is related to whether common sense suggests that the treatment makes enough of a difference to Justify its use. Practical significance is achieved when the result is O B. Statistical significance is achieved when the result is very unlikely to occur by chance. Practical significance is related to whether common sense suggests that the treatment makes enough O C Statistical significance is related to whether common sense suggests that the treatment makes enough of a difference to justify its use. Practical significance is achieved when the result is O D Statistical significance is achieved when the result is very unlikely to occur by chance. Practical significance is related to whether common sense suggests that the treatment makes enough very unlikely to occur by chance. It is possible for a treatment to have statistical significance, but not practical significance of a difference to justify its use. It is not possible for a treatment to have statistical significance, but not practical significance very unlikely to occur by chance. It is not possible for a treatment to have statistical significance, but not practical significance of a difference to justify its use. It is possible for a treatment to have statistical significance, but not practical significance

Explanation / Answer

Staistical hypothesis testing is used to determine whether the result of a data set is statiscally significant.statistical significance difference can be very small

Statistical significance (rejecting null hypothesis)is achieved when result is not likely to occur.

But Practical significance means to determine whether difference between samples are big enough to have real meaning /practical implications just by common sense.

It is possible to have statistical significance but no practical significance.

So ,option d is answer
