Links from the show:

• Most results in Journals are wrong (Ioannidis, 2005)
• ASA’s statement on p-values
• Misinterpretation of p-values (Greenland et al, 2016)
• Importance of p-values in ecology (Ellison et al., 2014)

This week on The Method Section, Tom is analysing p-values, are they significant enough to keep using? Ever since their introduction scientists have been both arguing for and against p-values due to peoples misunderstanding, misinterpretation and sometimes dishonest representation of them. Now with powerful technology available to perform more intense statistics, people question the relevance of the p-value! Music by: Joakim Karud – https://soundcloud.com/joakimkarud.
