Question

question 14 (2.5 points)
after rigorous statistical analyses have shown a very low likelihood (usually 5% or less) of a result having occurred by chance alone, the result is said to be ______
quantitatively probable
probably random
statistically significant
due to sampling error
statistically probable

Explanation:

In statistics, when the probability (p - value) of a result occurring by chance alone is very low (commonly ≤ 5%), the result is termed statistically significant. This concept is fundamental in hypothesis testing. Quantitative probability and statistical probability are more general terms related to probability calculations. A result being probably random or due to sampling error would imply a high chance of occurring by chance, which is the opposite of the given scenario.

Answer:

statistically significant
