Mar 24, 2014 - You think you've discovered the condition, but you were wrong. It's very common for people to claim that an effect is real, not just chance, whenever the test produces a P value of less than 0.05, and when asked, it's common for people to think that this procedure gives them a chance of 1 in 20 of making a In order to calculate sample sizes, it's common to set the power to 0.8 (obviously 0.99 would be better, but that would often require impracticably large samples).

Mar 10, 2014 - Researchers now challenge the most recent advances in this field, using a classic mathematical concept to tackle the outstanding problems in big data analysis. Apr 24, 2014 - This is meant, I think, to convey the thin line between reality and dream, and to accent the narrator's confusion—since he himself is often not at all sure what is going on.

Sep 15, 2011 - If this is happening in mathematics, the supposed pinnacle of human reasoning, it seems likely to afflict us in science too, first in physics and later in biology and the social sciences (where we're not even sure what's true, let alone why). Our group Ah, the feelings of excitement of taking mathematical risks! 5 days ago - In How Not to Be Wrong: The Power of Mathematical Thinking, University of Wisconsin professor Jordan Ellenberg celebrates the virtues of mathematics, especially when they're taught well.
