Hi can anyone guide what do p Values like 1.263832e-010,5.332744e-029 and 2.546970e-015 indicates in non parametric correlation analysis using Padprism?? I am analyzing non parametric data generated from KOOS questionnaire. I have to compile results but i ma confused about these values.Either these show significant or non significant associations? Early response will be highly appreciated. thanks.
Scientific notation - shift the value 29 places to the right - very small p values - highly significant if you believe in such things!
regarding the notation:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation
and regarding their values:
"highly significant" just means: the data is extremely unexpected given the model and the tested hypothesis. Such low values typically indicate that there is something wrong with your model, that means that either the assumed model misses important properties of the data, or that there is a vast amount of data clearly showing the (statistical) inadequacy of the assumed model even if the severety of the inadequacy is negligible.
