Dear all,
I'm sure that many of you noticed the recommandation of ASA about the use of p-values (http://www.amstat.org/newsroom/pressreleases/P-ValueStatement.pdf).
It is now clear that p-value can not be used to determine if an hypothesis is true (or if results are important)...
I'm thinking about the power of tests (1-beta) which been forgot for a while in papers...
Does it mean that, now, we have/should tell both Alpha and Beta values in papers when hypotheses tests are performed ?
(However, another problem is that Beta evaluation is not well documented, not very well teach... therefore not so easy to calculate. And moreover, should not be calculated but should be a factor to determine sample size etc. ...)
Regards
