From: Brian Smith <[email protected]> In some cases, when fitting a simple OLS regression, I obtain an estimated beta coefficient that is very small—for example, 0.00034—yet it still appears statistically significant based on the p-value.
to me a statistically significant difference between two treatment groups is always worth reporting, if only because the treatments may have more than one effect. One biological parameter was chosen to be the response but maybe it is not the right one. A small difference is a hint that something maybe more important is going on. -- --- Eric Elguero ------------ MIVEGEC. - UMR (CNRS/IRD/UM) 5290 900 rue Jean-François Breton 34090 Montpellier, France ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide https://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
