The Power of the Statistical Test
Abstract
I would like to add some reflections about Steele’s paper published in 2012.1 I could notice two main points in that paper. One of these is about the scientific language to communicate conclusions to policy makers and the other one is about the statistics decision theory. These problems are consequence of R. Fisher’s tradition to test the null hypothesis through the arbitrary cut with α in 0.05, 0.01 or 0.001.
